TMZ has released video where Chappelle can be heard talking about the attacker’s injuries and appears to be happy about the outcome.
“I felt good my friends broke his arm,” Chappelle is heard saying in the video.
Those words could cost Chappelle if a civil suit is filed.
“It is very possible that Dave Chappelle’s own words, where he says that he roughed the guy up, can be used against him in a potential civil manner down the line,” Triessl said.
The Hollywood Bowl may not be off the hook either.
Despite confiscating patrons’ cell phones ahead of the show, the security team somehow missed a replica gun that contained a knife blade.
“The Hollywood Bowl or the promoters involved in this show, including Netflix, may be facing civil liability for their lapse of security. Something went very wrong here,” Triessl said.

You think a jury will find against Chappelle, when they see the person attacked him? I find that hard to believe.
A classic example of the stupid that is America today, your call where the stupid falls.........
I don’t see how his opinion could lead to a lawsuit. Of course, nowadays anybody can file a nuisance lawsuit.

If such a case is filed, I doubt it will go to a jury. More likley to be settled.

Unless he staged it, then what basis?
How I wish I could drop everything and yell out........YES!, but I live in realville.
You think his insurance company will pay to settle with someone who attacked him?
Yes.
a statement after the fact means nothing...
specially since he dint call for, OR assault the FPOS...
called it a Trans too, SO WHAT???
This is asinine. You rush the stage and lunge at performer with a knife, and then you get to sue performer when his security staff breaks your arm? Seriously?
And how is it relevant that Chapelle took pleasure in the arm-breaking after the fact? So what?
It’s California bro....where the criminals are the victims......first thing I thought was Chappelle is gonna get sued.....and sure enough
I am not a lawyer, but I wonder if he could have a suit against them. Because if they make a settlement, they are incentivizing people attacking him. Why wouldn't other people attack him, if they know they can get money from him?
Dimebag Darryl was not available for comment.
The DA has already stated that the attacker will NOT be charged with a felony.
He didn’t respect…walk…
this whole thing is dicey. lawsuits can be flying in all directions. Security was warned by some guy when the homeless dude snuck into his section. security blew him off.
Well played.
RIP Dimebag and Vinnie!
