Man acquitted of shooting ex also found not guilty in battery case against her

Gayle Blount was found not guilty of battery after police said he pushed Bridget Knighton into a table at a restaurant in February 2021.

For the second time in less than three weeks, a South Florida man has been found not guilty of domestic violence-related charges.

Gayle Blount, 55, was acquitted by a Broward County jury Wednesday on charges that he pushed his ex-girlfriend, Bridget Knighton, into a table at a restaurant in 2021. Last month, a Miami jury found him not guilty after he shot his Knighton five times, claiming self-defense.

"I can’t even say I’m shocked," Knighton said.

Blount was found not guilty of battery after police said he pushed Knighton into a table at a restaurant in February 2021.

"I’m afraid for my life. That hasn’t changed," Knighton said.

Blount recorded cellphone video of the incident, showing Knighton standing over him as they argued for about eight or nine minutes. He then gets up and pushes her into a table.

"We showed it to the jury – after they heard what she said, they chose to acquit him," said Blount's attorney, Jonathan Jordan.

This is the second time Blount has been found not guilty of domestic violence-related charges in less than a month.

On Feb. 14, Blount was acquitted on attempted murder charges, claiming self-defense after he shot Knighton five times in May 2021. Blount told jurors he believed she was reaching for a gun.

Blount has been in jail for the past four years, and with Wednesday’s acquittal, will be released and able to go back home.

"He spent four years in custody, battling two different cases in two different counties and it took that long to prove his innocence," Jordan said. "The next step is freedom for him."

Freedom that Knighton says makes her feel unsafe as she claims she was abused multiple times throughout the relationship.

Despite the second acquittal, she says won’t stop pursuing justice.

"I’m going to be relentless in my pursuit of justice. It’s not over. It’s not over," she said.

Blount is expected to be released early Thursday morning.

“Blount said at one point he was even willing to accept a 20-year plea deal in Miami because he was afraid if things didn't go his way in trial, he would end up with a life sentence.

However, that deal collapsed when Knighton convinced a judge to deny it because she wanted her ex to do more time in person. Blount chose to go to trial. “

Incels might think it’s cute but being stalked by a woman is WOAT. Bc no matter what, she can always play victim, ruin your life & no one takes you seriously. This is good news.

I recently had a chick stalking me. Bytch was fine but turned out to be crazy AF. Bytch started harassing my child's mother and her mother. Mailing USPS boxes to my place. Reported a false sexual harassment to my job. Reported a false CPS allegation to the state agency. Used my pictures to create a profile on Grindr. Said she had someone drive by my place. This is only half the shyt she was doing.

What I didn't know was that she was on a 7 year probation for a 3rd felony stalking another guy before meeting me.

The great news is she was charged with a misdemeanor-harrasment and another 3rd degree felony-stalking. The bytch is currently sitting in jail awaiting her court date.

Fellas, run these chicks name thru your state's criminal justice agency website. It should show you their criminal charges for the entire state. It probably wont give you the specific case details. If she has a charge, go to that county website and look up the name. You will have access to specific details like the arrest affidavit, plea deal, witness statements, etc. Its all public information.

Spooky.

I'm not saying that lightly. Serious reform is required. The prosecutors would have access to the evidence. They'd know that he wasn't guilt and it would be seen as such, but they rely on the stress that comes with criminal proceedings to convince people to sign their lives away.

That's not justice.
