One of the revelers arrested after the Celtics championship win was Gary Zerola, a former prosecutor who was acquitted of rape charges.
Police apprehended Zerola at 1:45 a.m. after he was allegedly urinating in public near State and Congress streets, according to Jake Wark, a spokesman for the Suffolk District Attorney’s office. When asked what he was doing, Zerola allegedly used an open hand to strike a police officer in the upper right shoulder, Wark said.
Wait, did he try to strike the cop with his piss hand or his non-piss hand?
In January 2006, a Suffolk Superior Court jury acquitted Zerola of attempted rape and other related charges involving a 19-year-old woman in his apartment in August 2006. In March 2008, he was acquitted of charges stemming from an episode in his Boston apartment in February 2004 with a different 19-year-old woman. He had been accused of four counts of rape and one charge of procuring alcohol for a minor.
Rape charges were also dropped against Zerola in Miami, where he had been accused of assaulting an 18-year-old university student at a Miami Beach hotel.
It’s obvious that this guy is a Kobe Bryant fan right? He’s been accused of four counts of rape? Now that I think about it, Kobe might be a fan of Gary.
