Trump campaign says manager ‘innocent’
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleDonald Trump’s campaign says manager Corey Lewandowski is “absolutely innocent” following a decision by Florida police to charge him with battery.
The Republican front-runner’s campaign issues a statement after Jupiter, Florida, police charged Lewandowski with battery for an incident involving a reporter earlier in the month.
A video surveillance tape obtained by The Associated Press appears to show Lewandowski grabbing Michelle Fields’ arm as she tried to ask Trump a question at a March 8 event.
The statement says Lewandowski “will enter a plea of not guilty and looks forward to his day in court. He is completely confident that he will be exonerated.”
Lewandowski has retained an attorney in West Palm Beach.
