Mario was charged with assaulting his mother and was arrested on Friday. He was later released on bail. His lawyer, Hassan Murphy, called it “an unfortunate incident between a loving son and a mother who continues to struggle with a devastating addiction.”
His mom had called the police on Friday claiming Mario “started yelling at her and he used his hands and forearms and pushed her in the chest and shoulder area causing minor pain and discomfort.” When the police arrived, they found a “severely damaged” china cabinet, a broken mirror, a busted door and “a lot of glass lying on the floor” in their apartment.
Mario’s lawyer spoke of the mom’s addiction, saying:
“Anyone who has waged the battle to save loved ones from the forces of drugs knows the irrational behavior that almost always accompanies their actions. Despite the allegations, Mario remains committed to supporting his mother.”
This is a tough call, man. I feel bad for dude. It’s a crazy situation to say the least. What do you guys think?
