Former AEW wrestler Bear Boulder, real name Thomas Wansaw, was previously fired following his arrest for domestic battery by strangulation. However, Pwinsider is reporting that the case has been closed, and no charges will be filed.
On March 6, Katrina Teressa Mosciski, Assistant State Attorney for the Ninth Judicial Circuit of Florida, confirmed the decision. The filing stated that the case was deemed unsuitable for prosecution, and the records would be cleared. The victim of the incident also signed a statement on January 15, requesting that the charges be dismissed, which was added to court records on February 28.
The filing reads, “COMES NOW the State of Florida, by and through the undersigned Assistant State Attorney and states that: 1. From the investigation which has been made, it is the opinion of the writer that this case is not suitable for prosecution. 2. This action is taken to clear the records and to release subject’s bond if any has been posted responsive to the above charge(s). If in custody, defendant should be released. PROVIDED THERE ARE NO OTHER CHARGES OR HOLDS AGAINST HIM.”
The victim of the strangulation incident stated, “I am by the execution of this document, advising the State Attorney’s Office, Orange County, Florida that I do not desire the case to be prosecuted further, and request the charges be dismissed.“
