ESPN STAR'S WIFE: "I'M NOT A VICTIM OF ABUSE"

ESPN star writer Howard Bryant can breathe easy: his wife is standing by him. The author and talking head was arrested and charged in what cops call "a violent domestic attack" outside a Massachusetts pizza shop.
But Veronique Bryant tells the Boston Herald: “I’m not a victim of abuse — never been. Not now. Not ever. They (cops) immediately started to use force on Howard. They didn’t even ask what was going on. We were sitting in the car together and there was not a fight going on at that moment. The witnesses overreacted."
Bryant, 42, pleaded not guilty to domestic assault and battery, assault and battery on a police officer and resisting arrest. He was released on personal
recognizance. Bryant is also denying fisticuffs.
“I did put my hands on her. I did not physically assault her. We had a spat like married couples do,” he said of their nine year marriage. But witnesses are singing a different tune, cops say.
