As pointed out, Butler has had no known discipline issues and with some eye-witness statements coming out that this cop may have exaggerated the events and may in fact have created the events in the altercation, at some point you have to go with what you know - Butler is likely not the aggressor in the conflict. We know that the cop has had several "reported" events where he was in the wrong and lied about events to make an arrest. Those are just the ones that are known. I'm going with Butler on this.
