Kiefer Sutherland Off the Hook Thanks to 'Quite Uncooperative' Headbutt Victim
added by newsBotCliffhanger resolved! Kiefer Sutherland has now officially been let off the hook for the intoxicated, Brooke-Shields-defending headbutt that broke the nose of designer Jack McCullough. Sure, most people (especially those on parole) can't headbutt someone and send them to the hospital without charges being filed, but the New York D.A. ran up against one big problem -- and it's not Sutherland's celebrity. Well, not entirely.

Kiefer Sutherland All Clear in Headbutting Case
added by newsBotFor Kiefer Sutherland, it's case closed on both coasts, no ifs, ands or headbutts.

Kiefer Sutherland Off the Hook for Head-Butt
added by newsBotWhat Kiefer Sutherland did was pretty dumb, but not criminal. As expected, the Manhattan District Attorney's Office has opted not to prosecute the actor for misdemeanor assault in connection with his fight with designer Jack McCollough in May. The Los Angeles City Attorney's Office won't be going after Sutherland for probation violation on his 2007 DUI, either, after conducting its own investigation into his questionable conduct. New York police threw the book at him, but the case had been going nowhere since the 24 star and McCollough issued a joint "all is well" statement, not long after Sutherland's head met McCollough's nose in one of the dirtiest cheap shots since Johnny...

Nbff 09: Review of Michael Shannon noir The Missing Person

Review by: cyberhal
Rating: 7.5 out of 10
[Newport Beach Film Festival coverage]
“Recently, for a second or two, I almost thought that the world was a decent place to live in.” These are the words of John Rostow (Michael Shannon) when he’s in a good mood.

If you like film noir, then
