Danny Bonaduce won’t be charged
October 8th, 2007 at 8:28 pm . by nukeDanny Bonaduce won’t face charges for tossing former “Survivor” contestant Jonny Fairplay over his shoulders at an awards show.
A charge evaluation document released by the district attorney’s office Friday said there was “insufficient evidence” to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Bonaduce committed battery because Fairplay “initiated contact and acted offensively.”
Fairplay, 33, said he underwent 2 1/2 hours of dental surgery after Bonaduce tossed him over his shoulders at the Fox Reality Channel’s Really Awards last Tuesday. Fairplay landed on his face.
The evaluation worksheet said Fairplay jumped on Bonaduce, “wrapped his arms and legs around the suspect and thrust his pelvis into the suspect’s body.”
Deputy District Attorney Jeffrey Boxer wrote that Bonaduce didn’t intentionally injure Fairplay and his “actions fell within the realm of self-defense.”
Fairplay’s police report claimed the actor walked on stage uninvited and made a “derogatory statement.” Fairplay later said he was giving Bonaduce a hug, one of his signature moves as a performer.
A video of the incident captured the sound of the audience booing.
Fairplay, whose real name is Jon Dalton, appeared in the 2003 CBS reality show “Survivor: Pearl Islands.”
Bonaduce, 48, was a child star on “The Partridge Family.” He starred in the 2005 reality show “Breaking Bonaduce,” and has recently co-hosted Adam Carolla’s radio show.
Here’s the video…
Never heard of the Fairplay guy before…what a weird assemblage. Another pat on the back show for Hollyweird?

I’ve got the old website pretty much back up to speed.
(just in case)
gotta get some rack…gnite
Other than the disappearing comment, which happens almost anywhere on the innernut, this site has been humming along pretty well, since the last bit of weirdness.
What a weird finish to the Cowboys game. I had it on for a while, then went to a movie, and just happened to click back in the last few minutes.
Weird.
Hey, how about those LSU Tigers the other night, one good game…I’ll tell you what!
Sorry for the excessive use of the word weird.
Guess I’m just…weird.
I went to bed last night before the game was over. Needless to say, I was awaken by Ted’s hootin’ and hollerin’ over the last seconds of the game. He’s really been pulling for the Cowboys this season.
Looked to me like Fairplay had that coming.
LSU sucks, and they always will…or until USC and Notre Dame get back on their game.
Imagine that. A Trojan wanting ND to do well?! That’s because I was a ND fan before I went to USC. But we’ll keep that little secret, eh? lol.
LSU sux?
Rosemary, dear lady, in my world, suckage is an alternate word for USC or ND…even the word “suck” in my dictionary has those two logos in a frame next to the word.
