Assault charges against former mayor Frank Buck have been dismissed, the Daily Progress reports. He’d been accused of attempting to choke his own client while in court, but he and his (presumably former) client reached a settlement, allowing the judge to dismiss the charge. Buck says he intends to be more selective in his selection of clients.
