Barnett situation "blown out of proportion"

The owner of the nightclub Wet, Kathy Peotter, has been very informative in the aftermath of the arrest of Green Bay Packers linebacker Nick Barnett.

"I think the whole thing has been blown out of proportion," Peotter told the Green Bay Press-Gazette. "I'm not going to say Nick was on his best behavior that night, because he wasn't, but this is getting blown way out of proportion."

Peotter also gave a little insight as to why Barnett was charged of misdemeanor battery.

"One of the bartenders told Peotter that a woman threw a drink at Barnett shortly before a woman was shoved or fell to the ground," reports John Lee of the Press-Gazette. "Peotter said it wasn't clear if it was the same woman involved in both incidents."

Reports say it will still be more than a week until the district attorney decides whether to charge Nick Barnett or not.
