An unsealed search warrant revealed that Verne Gagne physically assaulted a member of his assisted living facility at least two other times, according to the AP. However, the widow of the man who died after being shoved to the ground by Gagne, isn't blaming the retired wrestler.

"He was a professional athlete and was trained to do certain moves," Betty Guttman said. "That is what makes him much more dangerous than the ordinary person." To read the full story, visit Google.com. [Thanks to Dot Net Member Nathan Timm]

Powell's POV: Gagne is suffering from Alzheimer's disease and has no memory of the incident in which he shoved Guttman's widow to the ground.
