Kiefer Watch: He's Innocent (According to Lawyer)

kieferagain0509.jpg Today Kiefer Sutherland's attorney declared his client was not the instigator in the headbutting incident last week. He was charged last Thursday with third-degree assault after an early morning scuffle at SubMercer, where he "attacked" a designer who may or may not have shoved Brooke Shields. (He said/she said can get confusing after 2 a.m.!) Reportedly designer, Jack McCollough claims Sutherland broke his nose, though the initial police report only noted a small gash (his reps later said it was more serious). The 24 stars attorney said, "We are troubled by the untruthful and self-serving information circulating regarding Kiefer Sutherland and events of last Monday evening. Out of respect for this law enforcement process, Kiefer Sutherland will not be making any comment.''

    He'll pay restitution and be sentenced to anger management and that'll be the end of the story. It always is for celebs.
