The Reason Behind His "Assault"
Filed under: Legal Matters > Christian Bale
Looks like Batman's mouth is what got him into trouble!
A report claims that Christian Bale was likely arrested for verbal assault.
In England one can be charged with verbal assault, Class 4 and Class 5.
Good to know English mommas!
If your kids mouth off, threaten to have them arrested!
Is that really arrest-worthy????
Unless you're screaming "I'm gonna fucking kill you!", we don't think it is.
What do U think?

first!!!!!
anyways they should just leave him alone
and btw he can kill me but 1st he can do me
then I'LL die happy
So fucking hot. I would lick his asshole!
i think they want in on his money..its funny timing that they are victims they same time his movie is making hundreds of millions
thats so dumb!
who cares
depends on what you say.
but no i dont think so.
Is thaut it? hes damn sexy so who cares if he beats his family
Isn't it all subjective? What's offensive to one isn't necessarily to another.
i should be in jail for first
christian can scream profanity at me all he wants
in bed:) cus i will be screamin right back;-)
second!!
they should really leave him alone
first
Ewww… No such thing as freedom of speech? Seriously? I thought he might have beat the crap our of his family— this is just a joke.
Well that's a stupid reason to get arrested. Jails would be overcrowded if that were the case. I wonder if they gave him a reason to mouth off. Another question, hey perez does Bale or Ledger's daughter Matalida get any of the money they are making off the dark knight dolls that look like them?
I guess no free speech in England
an "assault" is verbal. battery is physical — idiot
so stupid. if this were the case, my kid would be in jail for life.
wait, let's rethink this law.
Mommy needs a vacation.
oh and he can bring the handcuffs that was used to arrest him too;-)
oooo baby what i would do to that boy;-) if only he looks at this site i would soo put down my number… hahah call me;-)
thats kinda hot
bad boy
;)
What the fuck kind of arrest is that?? Like unless you're telling people to fuck off or their gonna get blasted or something like that I don't think they should get arrested. Why don't people worry about REAL problems?!
This is wild! For real? Mouthing off to mom?
his mother and sister are a disgusting attention whores, can they sorted it out privately? his family stinks, poor bale.
wow
verbal abuse? i guess that thats a good law, but it seems perhaps a little too much?
So LAME!!! I LOVE Christian Bale!!!!!!!!!!!
THAT'S IT?????
thank God my mom didn't raise me in england; i'd STILL be in jail!!!!
who cares. he's hot
i'll take his bat anyday. I don't care why he's in the news, but I am happy it's NOTHING! Just keep posting pics of him for me to …………. mmmmmmmmmmmm. yummmmmmm f'n umy
that is bullshit!! sounds like mommy and sis want some publicity!! leave the good actors alone!!!
Perez-
i love how you deleted my post telling your "fans" why Bale was arrested. Like, I said, if you were the Queer of all Media you would have already known this hours ago. Douche.
THAT'S GAY! I THOUGHT THAT HE SLAPED HIS MOMMA!
well, england doesn't have freedom of speech, so i can believe this.
the law was probably written for children and spouses who are verbally abused. Not a grown sister and a mother who are able to walk away, out of HIS hotel room. Sounds like misuse of the law.
Christian Bale is fucking HOT!!
That's bullshit! What retards!
Yeah it can be, and not just with the threat to take someone's life. Teach the little MFs some manners!
what a load o crap. his mom and sister are gonna freak when they realize they bit the hand that feeds em.
Re: Mel –
An assault can also be physical–it is the threat of violence. So, if one rushed another person, and stopped, or flashed a knife or gun, etc. - that would be an assault.
Please refrain from calling anyone an idiot when you don't necessarily know what you're talking about yourself.
christian bale is well fit yeah.
CHRIS is my baby daddy… I would want him to verbally and physically assault me… if you know what I mean…. Something like: "Do you like this, huh? You little bitch… huh?" LMFAO!
I think Bale's mom and sister suck. Turning him in to the police for verbal assault on the night of the premiere of his biggest movie ever? Sounds like a couple vengeful cows to me. I know two chicks who need a kick in the cunt!
hota$$
Bale would never hurt anyone. Its not true and they need to leave him alone. he wouldn't even hurt a fly, he is very into animal rights. btw he is so damn hot~
Re: Mel –
actually assualt can be both verbal and or physical, whereas batter is only a certain serious level of physical assault.
I guess you shouldn't call ppl idiots unless you are sure you aren't one yourself.
Tootles.
This is ridiculous. It's so not him. He's amazing at what he does and this sholdn't ruin his reputation. I still love him.
Who is 'we'? Are you referring to yourself in the third person and using a plural form to describe a singular entity? Or does 'we' refer to your dog? Do you have multiple personalities?
at least you stopped hiding the fact you get your material from TMZ
Sounds like family jealousy to me. How petty, to have him arrested right after his big weekend. He probably denied them a loan or something, using his Bat-voice, and they felt abused lol
I'm married to a somewhat verbal abuser. Does it sting like a slap? Yeah. But police? Bale's timing couldn't have been worse.
Verbal Assault has always been a criminal offense. We're are not talking about heated discussion here.
If the verbal assault puts someone in fear for their well being and/or safety then yes, you can be arrested for it. This is a class 5 assault.
You would probably be arrested to prevent a breach of the peace unless the verbal assault was racially motivated then other charges could be made.
Need witnesses to testify and prove that it was not as a result of your actions. If as a result of your actions then harassment charges would be brought against you.
I don't know what he said but that law is only invoked when people say or threaten and is only viably prosecutable or investigatable if there are others around that over heard and can vouch that it wasn't instigated by the complainant.
wtf who cares about this douch
Re: Naughty_Baby_Harley – hahaha exactly.. good point.
If verbal abuse is a crime, then why didn't they arrest Amy Crackhouse when she called people "dick head," "cunt" and "asshole". Too bad Christian can get away with calling his mom a "fucking bitch" and "dumb ass"
I'm from England and there is freedom of speech, but that doesnt involve swearing. the verbal "abuse" normally has to cause the person intimidation and normal involves profanities. I suppose its to teach people respect. in Englad you swear at a Police officer 2-3 times and they will arrest you!

HE WASN'T ARRESTED!!!!! He voluntarilly went in to tell his side of the story and NO CHARGES WERE MADE!!!!!
The only people who are ever found guilty of verbal assault are people who mentally abuse people, I think his mum and sister just wanted to get him arrested.
see! he didnt do anything wrong, his mom and sis are sqealers, they are just trying to get him in trouble/get money out of him. dont mess with Batman betches!!
Us Brits like to fuck with the famous! But I think it's a waste of Police time…
He probably told his momma that she couldn't have any of his money and the bitch turned PSYCHO!
UK loves you Christian… fuck the Police… and me!!! xxx
Um…he's freakin' BATMAN!!! Who's dumb enough to challenge The Dark Knight?
that is stupid…..obviously the family must be nuts - and he is in the middel of long publicity tour and must be exhausted and cranky…bet the family is asking for cash or some other crazy horseshit and he told them to fuck off.
If I was da police I find any reason to arrest that fine piece of meat!
PS….he can yell at me in bed too….hehehhehe….he IS batman…..yummy
I think I want Christian to assault me with his beautiful mouth.
Guess when you're supposed to be the star of the movie, but you're really not. Your dead co-star is getting all the press. sucks for him
this sadly sounds like my family. i feel a lil more normal now
I think mommy and sister need to grow a pair and unbunch their panties.
He's Batman. He can do no wrong.
he looks like adam levine from maroon 5 in that pic
for any british peeps who are waiting for the movie to be released, the dark knight has been leaked on greatstufftv.com
That is the biggest load of horse shit I have ever heard. Every person in the US would be in jail if that was the law here. She should be arrested for trying to ruin his career with a bull shit charge like this .
Are they serious?? They're idiots over there. Verbal assault? thats a joke. I dont think it should even be an offense….then again its not like the U.S. where we have FREEDOM OF SPEECH. They're backwards over there anyhow.
Of course it is, That's a great way to get someone out of the situation and give them time to calm down before things go any father.
Maybe if it happened on a public street, but in your own home or room. Mum and sis sound like real twats to drag him through this right now during his pinnacle moment. Thanks Mom love ya!!!
Sound like jealous money grubbing bitches to me. I would knock their asses off the gravy train real fast. Hopefully he does.
While verbal abuse/assault is not encouraged I would hardly think it is arrest worthy. Geez! Don't the police have more serious crimes to take care of?
NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO!NO
His mother and sister are estranged - both have attempted to contest his father’s will. He died in 2003. His two other sisters are in the entertainment industry. People forget that Bale is a child star. Show Business moms. Ugh.
