Jonathan Roy charged with assault for hockey fight

The assault charges against Jonathan Roy for provoking a fight with fellow goal-tender Bobby Nadeau are ridiculous. This was handled internally within the league and that is enough. The reason the state should leave this dispute alone is because the victim — Bobby Nadeau — does not feel victimized:

“Moi, je n’ai jamais porté plainte à la suite des événements au centre Georges-Vézina. Mais les enquêteurs de police ont tout de même tenu à m’interroger sur ce qui s’était passé ce soir-là. Ce que j’avais à dire, je l’ai déjà dit”, indique le jeune homme.

Bobby Nadeau was willing to put this past him but now his taxes are going to pay for meting out state justice! Let me guess: some police officer in Quebec wants to become famous.
