Myers: Officially no longer a wife-beater

We talked about Phillies pitcher Brett Myers back in June, when he smacked his wife on a Boston street. Now his wife has decided to drop the charges:

In a sharply worded statement, District Attorney Daniel F. Conley criticized the judge's decision, which falls during Domestic Violence Awareness Month, saying his office was "deeply disappointed that a Boston Municipal Court judge used his discretionary authority to simultaneously affirm that a man beat his wife on a public street and deny our efforts to hold him responsible."

Kim Myers was quoted as saying therapy helped a lot. No quotes from Brett. He's still a jerk.
