BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (WBKO) -- Senator Rand Paul is suing his neighbor, Rene Boucher in civil court for damages after Boucher tackled him in November of 2017.
Boucher was ordered to sit for a deposition and give a testimony Monday before his trial date which is set for January 28.
The deposition lasted five hours, as Boucher was sworn in by Special Judge Tyler Gill, and questioned about the November 2017 attack, as well as events leading up to and after it…”
…
”When I saw him once again, he was off of his mower, taking branches from that one pile and putting them on the property line to intentionally aggravate me. I lost it and became irate," said Boucher…
…In March, Boucher pleaded guilty in federal court to assaulting a U.S. Congressman. In June, he was sentenced to
30 days prison which he
served at a Chicago Federal prison between July and August of this year…
...
Special Judge Tyler Gill is presiding over the civil case.
Depositions are usually done in a conference room setting, but
Senator Paul's lawyer requested it take place in the courtroom.
"Some information was expected, some was not. Now we'll have to go back and really do some checking to see if all that was accurate or not," said
Kerrick.
