Police release report on Palin family brawl

Anchorage police released a report regarding a brawl involving about 20 people -- including members of Sarah Palin's family -- that occurred last month, the Alaska Dispatch News reports.

"Police said they arrived to find Track Palin, shirtless, bloody and heavily intoxicated, getting into a white limousine to leave the party. Witnesses described a large fight involving at least 20 people that included members of the Palin family. Several witnesses said they watched Bristol Palin repeatedly punch homeowner Korey Klingenmeyer in the face. Klingenmeyer told police he had asked Bristol Palin to leave, after which she became angry and began punching him."

Read the entire police report online.

To me, a "family brawl" involves all members of the same family, or at least same family plus in-laws. But that is a quibble I know.

Fri Oct 10, 2014, 12:28 AM
Oct 2014

called her a slut. Then she changed it to "cunt." Then Todd said he called her a bitch. But no other witness heard him call her anything. All said he was calm and controlled with her and did not fight back at all when she was punching him, though he did eventually hold her arms to stop her from throwing any more punches after the first 6.

I can't believe I read the whole thing! (Remember that Alka Seltzer commercial?)

But what all the other witnesses say is that when drunk Bristol came tearing around to the back yard threatening to "kick some bitch's ass," Korey told her she wouldn't be starting any fights there and he wanted her off his property. When she demanded, "Who the f*ck are you," he told her he owned the house, and then she insisted that he did NOT own the place and she would knock him out too.

Then he said, "Go ahead and hit me," and when she did, he said, "If that make's you feel good, hit me again," so she landed 5 more hard punches to his face, using both hands. Finally tiring of being assaulted, he grabbed her arms to stop the punches and pushed her away from him, but drunk as she was, she fell down. One witness said that some of the wives also came to help pull Bristol away from Korey, and that she fell down when they did. But Bristol's version has Korey knocking her to the ground and then dragging her around by the legs while calling her nasty names.

Then Todd came running around to the back yard ready to fight Korey, claiming he called Bristol a bitch. That started round three or four, since the Palins were involved in at least one fight out front up the street, possibly two--or that might have been just an extension of the first one.

When the cops were talking to Korey, Todd and Sarah also approached angrily and started yelling at him.

And, no, they had not been invited to the party. They just decided to show up since it was Todd's birthday, too, and he had heard Korey was throwing a big party for three other people. Apparently Korey was quite annoyed about their uninvited appearance at the party, too.

Todd and Track "Injun Rasslin" on the lawn. Bristol puking in the bushes (preggers, drunk, or both?).

and LORD KNOWS if they had been black, that whole "he was belligerent" and argumentative stuff would have gotten him thrown down, cuffed, arrested and possibly shot.

I was mightily impressed with how all the Palin crowd was treated so terribly! Not a one of them did anything to deserve the abuse they suffered at the hands of those terrible, terrible people. Of course, everybody else who was there tells a different story, but since the Palins have never done anything before to make me believe they would be deceptive or flaut the law, I have no choice but to commend the police on their sound judgement in allowing those poor people to get back into the stretch Hummer and go home, although really an apology from the bastards who "sat on Bristol's ass" might have been appropriate.
