Won’t be charged

Judgement0 Comments

After conducting a months-long investigation, the Delaware attorney general announces that Busch will not be charged over the alleged assault of his ex-girlfriend. This decision does not affect Busch’s NASCAR suspension.

I am grateful that the prosecutors in Delaware listened, carefully considered the evidence, and after a thorough investigation decided to not file criminal charges against me. I wish to thank my family, friends, fans, and race team who stood by me throughout this nightmare with their unwavering support.

Thanks also goes to my legal team for making sure that the truth got out and was fully provided to the prosecutors. As I have said from the beginning, I did not commit domestic abuse. I look forward to being back in racing as soon as possible and moving on with my life.
