I'll also note that there was some chatter about the possibility of Bragg charging Penny with manslaughter again since that charge was dismissed last week, but that does seem highly unlikely.

Right. Zachary filed a civil lawsuit at the New York Supreme Court last Wednesday. He has accused Penny of assault, battery, and causing his son's death through negligence, carelessness, and recklessness. The suit doesn't specify a specific amount of money.

Well, on Sunday, Jane Doe amended that October suit to now name Jay-Z as that other alleged assailant. So just to give you a little bit of background for those who have not been following, the suit says that Doe tried to get into the MTV Music Awards without a ticket.
