Matt Barnes’s fiance says there was no physical abuse

Yesterday, we reported that Matt Barnes was arrested on domestic abuse charges on Wednesday in Sacramento County, CA.  Today, the Sacramento Bee reports that Matt Barnes’s fiancee claims that no domestic abuse occured.

Laura M. Wright, a public relations executive, who says she represents both Barnes and his fiancee, released this statement on behalf of Govan:

“Any accusation of domestic violence are false. My fiancé, Matt Barnes, has never physically abused me or my family.”

Update (by Jay): This whole situation is freaking weird. One day Barnes’ fiancee is telling police that Barnes was the primary aggressor, both parties had “visible injuries,” and 911 dispatchers could only hear the sound of a struggle. The next, Barnes “has never physically abused me or my family.”  I don’t know about you, but I’m starting to think Barnes was Chuck Finley’d.

    First I live in the state of California, and i am going to give you a insight into the legal system. If a domestic is called on your house no matter what arrest or not you will be put in the system and you will be mandated to take anger management class/domestic violence class. I suspect Barnes will be forced to enroll.

    Second Matt Barnes girlfriend was on the show basketball wife’s. Herd she was a bitch on the show. I never watched the show so i was hoping others could give more insight thanks.

      I am proud to say I’ve never watched the show once. But I am not proud that I can’t help give you an answer. In the end, though, does it really matter whether she’s a bitch or not? All that matters is whether someone — either Barnes or his fiancee — was abused.
