All Charges Dropped Against Brian Blair

Posted: Jul 2nd 2009 By: CMBurnham

Prosecutors have decided to drop charges against former wrestler and County Commissioner Brian Blair.

According to a memo from Assistant State Attorney Rita Peters, Brian Blair's oldest son, Brett, had "gone crazy".

The memo goes on to note that Brett Blair was more aggressive than his father in the confrontation and that Brian Blair's injuries appeared to be defensive in nature.

Blair, 52, was arrested at his home on North Boulevard on Father's Day shortly after he allegedly got into a scuffle with his two teenage boys.

Blair ran his political campaigns on a family values, law and order platform. Blair was charged with two counts of child abuse/domestic violence, both third-degree felonies.

Blair was elected to the Hillsborough County commission in 2004, but lost
