A Jefferson Parish jury found former New Orleans Saints linebacker Junior Galette was not liable for civil damages demanded by a woman who accused him of beating her in a 2015 domestic incident at his Kenner residence, WVUE-Fox 8 reports.
The jury reached a decision Wednesday following a three-day trial before Judge Stephen Enright Jr. of the 24th Judicial District Court.
The woman sought monetary damages from Galette for emotional and physical distress stemming from the Jan. 5, 2015, encounter. Kenner police arrested Galette and booked him with misdemeanor domestic abuse battery after she called police and accused him and his cousin, Terrance Banks, of roughing her up while throwing her out of his residence.
