Police have cleared a Swedish hockey player accused of touching a woman's breasts in an Ostersund night club because the woman's "gigantic breasts" could not have been avoided when he put his arm around her.
The incident reportedly happened at the Rest Marite night club Saturday night. The player for Swedish pro team IF Bjorkloven was not named.
"(Two women) were standing at a table and when the accused came up drunk and draped his arms around both of them from behind, he accidentally brushed against the breasts of one," investigator Mikael Lundberg said, according to Expressen.
"And it should be noted that they had gigantic breasts. It wasn't difficult to touch them. If you are drunk and you hang over someone, you can understand how it could have happened."
Nonetheless, the team has suspended the player.
And the local police are facing an angry backlash.
"It's completely idiotic," former chief prosecutor and legal expert Sven-Erik Alhem told Expressen. "It's absolutely disgusting. It is a sensational statement, I would say."
Breast size has no bearing on whether or not it was a sexual assault, said Swedish criminal lawyer and social commentator Elisabeth Massi Fritz.
Nor does being drunk excuse the player for the way he hung his arms around the woman.
"Being drunk does not exonerate," she said. "It's sexual assault under the criminal code if another person harasses you in a way that violates your sexual integrity."
Always a good idea to carry a spare.
What if her feet touch the wall before her boobs do?
yup....that’s pretty much what the lady I worked with in that store looked like.
“I stumbled on my way down the ladder and fell, straight into her bazookas.”
You “accidentally” stumbled, right? ;-)
Bazookas=bazoombas.
Autocorrect is getting dangerous.
Actually I did. To her credit she was totally cool about it.
I just can’t describe the sort of deceleration you experience. Kind of like that slow-motion film of the guy catching a cannonball in his gut.
Reminds me of the old Playboy cartoon captioned “Why there are no large breasted ballerinas.”
Anybody remember Morganna the kissing bandit who would run out on the baseball field and plant one on one of the players. She would get arrested for trespass, then claim she was so top-heavy, when she leaned over the rail, she fell out onto the field.
“To her credit she was totally cool about it.”
Really, you were very lucky - with some people, that’ll cost you your job if your lucky, and result in criminal prosecution if you’re not.
Nah, I was a kid. She was a bit older.
That was before “cougar” was a thing.
Also, I always felt bad for her, because in reality she was a very smart woman.
But people took one look at the boobies and concluded that she must be Carol Wayne in an old Tonight Show skit.
