Bill Murray’s wife claims that he is the violent and booze-addicted one in the family – but police documents show that she has allegedly tied one on and kicked up some trouble herself.
Jennifer Butler-Murray has gotten a reputation in her suburban Charleston, SC, neighborhood as an avid drinker who gets “physical” with her children and gets into bizarre police incidents.
On March 17 of this year, Butler-Murray allegedly got drunk and two of her kids ran over to a neighbor’s house for help, according to a report filed with the Sullivan’s Island Police Department.
The trouble started after a witness saw her shouting loudly at one of her kids, the report said. Cops went to her home to investigate.
“I spoke with [her] and advised her of the complaint,” the responding officer wrote. “The w/f [white female] seemed to be very impaired and didn’t want me on her property anymore, she slammed the door and I left the residence.”
Later, a neighbor called cops saying Butler-Murray’s kids had come to his home seeking help.
“I then had the complainant meet me at the police station to talk with the juveniles . . . They informed me that their mother had been drinking heavily and had [become] physical with them,” the report said.
Butler-Murray’s lawyer, Richard Rosen, declined to comment.
The report said Bill Murray was in California at the time. The kids were sent over to a family friend until he got back.
