Koby Abberton is in jail
Bra Boy surf gang leader Koby Abberton has been jailed in Hawaii for the assault of an off-duty police officer.
Abberton was led to prison in handcuffs after Judge Ray Graulty in Hawaii’s Kaneohe District Court sentenced him on Thursday to three days’ jail.
Abberton, a Sydney-based professional surfer, pled no contest to a third-degree assault charge after reaching a plea deal with prosecutors.
Prosecutors had sought a 10-day jail stint, but the judge sided with Abberton who had sought three days.
Abberton, 30, punched 27-year-old off-duty officer Richard Puu outside Honolulu’s Epic nightclub in the early hours of March 8.
Puu told authorities he was hit while trying to break up a fight involving Abberton.
Abberton and his brothers received worldwide notoriety this year with the global release of their documentary, Bra Boys, which featured Oscar winner Russell Crowe as narrator and focused on their violent upbringing on Sydney’s southern beaches.

EXCLUSIVE PHOTO of Wardo Beat-Down
Rumors are filling in that Wardo took a bit of a beating the other day (from a notorious North Shore enforcer) for snaking too many people at Backdoor.
Wardo hopped Tom Dosland and then Bruce, then another local guy. Tom wanted to fight him one on one and Wardo split, then Kala ran into him later gave him a crack or two for being out of control in the water. Even Bruce, who is friends with Wardo was pissed off. Wardo went nuts, and like anyone else, if you make like a hotshot and start getting out of control you get cracks.
An anonymous witness, who was on the scene, sent us the SHOCKING photo above confirming the brutal attack!
If you have any other news, or photos of the poun’ing, please send them to us!.
