Kendrick Perkins Claims Innocence Following Arrest


Kendrick Perkins’ lawyer says his client did nothing wrong when he found himself in handcuffs this past weekend. From kiiitv (via I am a GM): “Perkins was arrested early Saturday morning after what Beaumont police call a disturbance at The Ticket sports bar, off College Street. The Oklahoma City Thunder center was booked in the Jefferson County Jail and released a short time later after posting bond. Police say Perkins threatened to get physical with club management and was arrested for Public Intoxication and Disorderly Conduct. In a press released obtained by 12 News HD, Beaumont attorney Langston Scott Adams says, quote ‘Mr. Perkins has maintained his innocence to the charges and is recovering at home with family suffering from injuries he received during the incident.’ Adams claims witnesses are giving different accounts to what happened Saturday morning than what Beaumont police are reporting.”
