File-This Jan. 29, 2014, file photo shows Canadian musician Justin Bieber being swarmed by media and police officers as he turns himself in to city police for an expected assault charge, in Toronto. Bieber is giving Toronto Mayor Rob Ford a brief respite as Canada's favorite bad boy and butt of all jokes. But the comparison may not be a fair one. The 19-year-old teen idol is facing the equivalent of a misdemeanor assault charge. Ford has admitted smoking crack while in a drunken stupor and is being sued for supposedly orchestrating the jailhouse beating of his sister's ex-boyfriend.
