“Sober, would he ever have done that? No. … I would assume sober, no drinks, she slaps him, I don’t think his initial reaction is slap back,” he added.

O’Malley also said, “I don’t think it was right. I don’t think obviously you shouldn’t hit, especially a little girl like that, but alcohol is flowing, she hit him first…” ‘Suga’ maintained that it was wrong of White and his wife to slap each other and blamed alcohol for the situation escalating.
