Kasey Kahne will have record cleared upon completion of community service
By SceneDaily Staff
Monday, December 08, 2008
Gillett Evernham Motorsports driver Kasey Kahne will have his record cleared provided he performs 50 hours of community service and donates $50 donation to a court charity to resolve a misdemeanor battery charge from Homestead-Miami Speedway in November 2007.
The court will dismiss the misdemeanor charge against Kahne once he performs his community service, according to Miami-Dade County (Fla.) court records. Such matters are typically resolved with this type of agreement when there is a dispute over the facts and the accused, with no criminal record, prefers to take care of the matter without going to trial.
Kahne has maintained his innocence in the matter over whether he pushed security guard Archibald Hutchinson, who was guarding the driver motorhome lot Nov. 16, 2007 during the race weekend at Homestead. Kahne typically does community service as part of his foundation work.
Kahne still faces a civil suit in the matter.

Dec 8, 2008 at 5:16 PMIt's embarrassing when a NASCAR driver gets into something as stupid as this, whether it's true or not. Ordering him to do 50 community service hours when he probably performs 10 times that a year and pay a $50 fine is pathetic. Sure, if he didn't do it then it's a bad penalty, but if he DID get into an altercation, the $50 fine is a bigger slap in the face than 50 community service hours.

Dec 8, 2008 at 10:23 PMI'm just glad it's over. I was most worried about the criminal part. The "security guard" hasn't been an angel is his past (he's gone to court over other things)...so that might count against him in the civil suit.

Dec 9, 2008 at 9:36 AMI have been following Mr. Kahne's carreer for a few years and i have heard about how much of a good person he is, I think Mr. A. Hutchinson may have carried the situation a little to far. Go Kasey and win the Daytona 500, and make the chase.

Dec 9, 2008 at 9:39 AMThis lawsuit is completely BS. This Archibald Hutchison is looking for $$$. The guy out-weighed Kahne by a good 50-100lbs. If Kahne was able to shove him & knock him down then he had no business guarding the entrance to the Drivers Motor-home Lot. How many others did he let pass without checking for their creditentals? That was never disclosed although the fact that he had been "talked" to by his supervisor telling him to get up off the stool and start doing his job, was never made an issue when they decided to take Kahne to court.

Dec 9, 2008 at 11:01 AMThat lawsuit is seriously bunk. What is this security guard's "permanent injury?" Come on-it was a little shoving match. Grow the heck up Security Guard. Grow some nads while you're at it. Act like a man instead of a pansy.

Dec 11, 2008 at 5:09 PMListen 3 miami police officers were there when this happened. All the drivers loose their cool sometimes. in the defense of the guard he was only doing his job. Kasey acted stupid. He wanted his brother to get in without his credentials on him.All the guard did was his job. I do however believe the guard may have taken it to far. Only time will tell.

Dec 25, 2008 at 12:28 PMI saw the guy's lawyer on youtube, I can tell you right now he's after money. There is no way somebody as gently as Kasey would intentionally "shove" somebody with anyform of malace. I'm glad it is overwith now. And just for the record, Chazzo Ozzahc, he's 5'9" and 130lbs, but your point is still valid.
