When trying to decide who to trust between Madonna and the sleazy paparazzi, it's a tough choice but I go with the paparazzi because they keep this site going. Anyway, TMZ has more details on the Madonna/horse incident. No, not that. That's just disgusting.
The paparazzo who claims he was the only pap around when Madonna fell off her horse on Saturday says he isn't to blame for her fall -- and he claims Madonna's peeps are straight up lying about what went down.
We spoke with the photog who tells us he shot Madonna before and after she fell -- but was not there for the actual fall. He tells us he took pics of her riding and then left. About 30 minutes later, he says he got a tip about an ambulance being sent out for a 50-year-old woman -- so he put two and two together and went back to snap pics of her being tended to.
He says all his photos were taken from a public road and the only other photog around was Stephen Klein -- the famous photographer whose house Madonna was at.
As Hinton put it, "If I had startled the horse, I would have gotten pictures!"

He's not lying either. I'm thoroughly convinced if Lindsay Lohan was hit by an SUV and her remains were being eaten on Rodeo Drive by an escaped zoo lion, the photogs would be taking pictures for 45 minutes and then they might call 911 when their film runs out. But probably not.
