"Prosecutors Drop Criminal Case Against Bruins' Milan Lucic After Wife Declines to Testify"

Prosecutors dropped the domestic assault case against Boston Bruins veteran Milan Lucic after his wife declined to testify and a judge ruled her 911 call inadmissible. The defense argued that the call failed to definitively identify Lucic as the suspect, and the judge sided with them, leading to the prosecution ceasing to pursue the case. Lucic, who is on a leave of absence from the team, plans to meet with the NHL commissioner and return to the NHL. After his arrest, he entered the NHL's Player Assistance Program for mental health and substance abuse issues.
