Assault charge

Hirsch is charged with third degree felony assault for allegedly putting a Paramount executive in a chokehold at Tao Nightclub in Park City, Utah. Hirsch’s lawyer:

Emile consumed an enormous amount of alcohol on the evening in question and he has no memory of what happened. Emile takes these allegations very seriously, and is devastated that any of this has occurred. A few days after the incident, Emile sought help and checked himself into an alcohol rehabilitation facility, where he remains today, to ensure nothing like this ever happens again.
