Assault & Harassment Charges Against Kurt Angle Dropped
Source: ThePittsburgchannel.com
All remaining charges against Kurt Angle were dismissed today after a Pennsylvania judge dismissed the charges of assault and harassment stemming from an alleged incident on August 6 involving Angle’s ex-girlfriend Trenesha Biggers.
The assault and harassment charges against Kurt Angle were dropped today by judge Mary Murray due to Angle’s ex-girlfriend continuing to stay at his house for nine days after the alleged incident took place. Both parties signed a document acknowledging an incident took place.
The judge reportedly dismissed the charges without enough evidence that bruises and scratches were brought on her by Angle. “She’s a professional wrestler. She left the state, went to Florida for a period of time. We don’t know how she got those bruises, but we can tell you, they were not at the hands of my client,” said Michelle Santicola, Angle’s lawyer.
Angle broke down crying when the charges were dropped. “I’ve never hit a woman and never would,” Angle told reporters. “I was brought up by my mother that way, and I had to go through this.”
Biggers claims Angle abused her “a few times” and she feared for her life. “The first few times that it happened, I believed that, ‘Maybe this won’t happen any more.’ But at this point in time, I was like, the next time that this happens, I could die.” Biggers said. She added that she felt “terrified” of Angle when they were living together in Angle’s home outside of Pittsburgh.

Christy Hemme was right. Something has to be done about the women’s status in wrestling. We have Angle’s ex-girlfriend, a wrestler who suffered harassment from an intense wrestler like Kurt Angle, does this judge watch wrestling? Does he know what Kurt Angle is capable of? Especially with Sharmell, he put Booker T out of focus in Smackdown, and what he did to the late Sensational Sherri after the tirade against Shawn Michaels for Wrestlemania, and what he did with his wife, can Angle be trusted with women? And speaking of which there’s Michigan’s own Scott Steiner, the David Letterman of wrestling. He spends his time hitting on wives of wrestlers, is he asking for a sexual harassment lawsuit? Ask Kimberly Page, Stacey Keibler, Krystal Lashley. There has to be rules about wrestlers giving more respect to wrestler’s families before they become casualties of war.
