Hey, everyone.

I just received a phone call from Mark Bunker, who was calling from just outside the courthouse where Bob Minton was being tried for battery of Richard Howd on October 31st.

He didn't have time to give me all the details, given the fact that the press was swarming around like sharks and interviewing everyone, but he did say that Bob was acquitted after a very short deliberation - less than 30 minutes.

I'm sure that all the details will be forthcoming tonight, but I felt that this was important enough to get the word out ASAP.
