UPDATE: Bill Murray beats his wife

Thumbnail image for 0529_bill_murray_divorce_00.JPG Bill Murray's wife of more than 10 years, Jennifer Murray, filed a complaint in court against the actor. She alleges he physically assaulted her and suffers from severe drug and alcohol addictions. She's citing the complaint as grounds for divorce and is also seeking to have their prenuptial agreement nullified because of Bill's abusive behavior. The Charleston Post and Courier reports:
According to the complaint, Jennifer Murray moved into a Sullivan's Island home in 2006 with the couple's four children due to her husband's "adultery, addiction to marijuana and alcohol, abusive behavior, physical abuse, sexual addictions and frequent abandonment."
Jennifer also provided details of the times Bill assaulted her, including an incident where he allegedly hit her in the face and then told her she was lucky he didn't kill her:
It was at the Sullivan's Island home, according to the complaint, that Murray allegedly abused his wife in November 2007. The six-page court filing says Murray "hit his wife in the face and then told her she was 'lucky he didn't kill her.' "
It's always awesome when jackass celebrity wife-beaters suddenly think they're nefarious super-villains: "Yeah, see, I could kill you and get away with it. So wise up, yeah." Let's take a moment to thank O.J. for this advance in domestic abuse. And by thank I mean hope he gets herpes. In the meantime, how big of an A-hole is Bill Murray? Assuming any of this turns out to be true, I'm leaning towards colossal. UPDATE: TMZ has a statement from Bill Murray's lawyer: "Bill Murray is deeply saddened by the dissolution of his marriage to Jennifer. Mr. and Mrs. Murray remain loving parents, committed to the best interests of their children. Mr. Murray asks that the public respect his family's privacy at this difficult time." I'm not a lawyer, but shouldn't they have denied the allegations?
