Richard Gale, the Skinny Bully, says he was bullied first by Casey

There are always two sides to a story. His side, his side, and somewhere in between is the truth. Perhaps there’s more to the Casey fighting against the bully saga that meets the eye?

The Blaze reports that the infamous schoolyard confrontation that captured the attention of the world last week is now playing out as a battle on news stations and websites.

As we’ve reported, Casey Heynes snapped when Ritchard Gale relentlessly bullied him. Casey’s raw reaction immediately drew sympathy from people who’ve suffered the emotional distress of being bullied. With public support firmly on Casey’s side, however, Ritchard is now claiming he was a victim and that Casey started the fight:

Casey has said he’s been a target of school bullies his whole life because he never retaliates. But 13-year-old Ritchard says he’s also been bullied and that Casey provoked him into fighting, calling him a “class idiot.” Ritchard also claims it was Casey who threw the first punch.

Judging by the original video, it seems hard to believe Casey could have started the fight, but Ritchard insists, “He abused me first.”




Having the world hate you is a pretty tough thing to deal with for a 12 yr old boy. I think we need to consider what we really don’t know. One video can never be the whole truth.

Or maybe Richard is full of it?
