Felony charges dropped in fire-breathing bartenders case

Follow-up to this:

Felony charges dropped in fire-breathing bartenders case:

"Today Morrogh said the felony charges in the case were inappropriate and will be dismissed.

'I reviewed the case and decided the felony charges were not appropriate,' he said. 'I didn't find any evidence of malice and the explosive device was a bottle with a wick in it that was lit. I filed a motion to have the felony charges dismissed.'

A formal hearing to dismiss the felony charges will be held in Fairfax County District Court in Herndon on Thursday. The statewide fire prevention code misdemeanors against the bartenders still stand and a preliminary hearing is scheduled for Sept 22. Those charges could result in three years imprisonment and a combined fine of $7,500 for each of them.

'We were very confident this case would be resolved appropriately by the Commonwealth's Attorney and we are looking forward to the proper resolution in this case,' said attorney Mani Fierro of the Herndon Law firm, which represents Rogers and Fedorchak, along with attorney Kyle Manikas."

In the future, property owners decide what is allowed on their own property.

A Dick in the News

Stupid?  Publicity stunt?  Both?  Ministry of Gossip reports.  You decide.

Andy Dick arrested. Again. While still on probation.

Comedian Andy Dick is out on bail after his arrest early this morning in West Virginia on two counts of felony sexual abuse. He is accused of grabbing the crotch of a bouncer at the Rum Runners bar in Huntington.




The managing partner of the Lucky Bone Comedy Club, which had hired Dick, posted the comic's $60,000 bail -- and surprise, Andy's "absolutely still on the schedule for Saturday and Sunday."



Such a shock this is, given Andy's choir-boy past.



The alcohol-monitoring bracelet he got in 2008 after pleading guilty to misdemeanor battery and pot possession -- related to the incident in which he allegedly pulled down a 17-year-old girl's tank top at a chicken wings restaurant -- was due to come off in October 2009. The probation? That wasn't due to come off for three years after the plea.
