    More Jackson/Wink fighters endearing themselves to the local authorities in ABQ.

    Brandao got into an argument with a DJ at a strip club and left, was refused re-entry, and attempted to fight his way back in. He later returned with a pistol that he pointed at a club employee and hit the man with the butt end of the gun before leaving again.

    Currently charged with ggravated battery with a deadly weapon, aggravated assault, and willful assault with a deadly weapon. If this doesn't end in jail time I won't know what to say.

    He always seemed a bit nuts to me.
