Amy Winehouse’s Husband Pleads Guilty

Singer Amy Winehouse’s husband, Blake Fielder-Civil, has pleaded guilty to assaulting a barman and then trying to cover it up. His is on trial in London on charges of attacking a pub landlord, named James King, and then conspiring with him to withdraw as a witness at the trial.
