In September, the four white boaters pleaded not guilty to assault after police said they were filmed beforehand punching or pushing a black riverboat captain.

Ray, who was seen on footage violently swinging a folding chair into a woman and punching several people in the ensuing fight, previously pleaded not guilty to disorderly conduct charges.

The moment he used the chair became part of a broader mania over the viral video, which spawned countless memes, parodies and even merchandise.

Millions of viewers tuned in to watch the fights after they found internet fame. Richard White, an attorney representing one of the white boaters, told WSFA he is fighting to ensure his client is treated fairly given the national attention.
