We're going to uh I got my sergeant coming here just because it's protocol and then we're going to get the dog out here and hopefully just his presence alone will get her to chill the house and then we're going to take her out. No, no, the ones that are inside. I'm saying we're we're getting a a canine out here because of the severity of allegations. >> Well, that's the thing. I don't I would much rather see her go to like >> she No, no, no. So, you what did what did she get diagnosed with? >> Um like manic depressive stuff. So, unfortunately, because of the circumstances and that you guys are in a relationship, she is going to go to jail.

They have a medical floor that you're >> forced to go and like bond her out of jail. Oh, well, you're not going to be able to b her out because there's going to be a no contact order. >> She potentially I get that you're a medic and that you've probably went through worse, but she potentially could with that. Okay. Obviously, what happens when we leave is out of my control. But being that we're here, years skull split, I've got people that witnessed it, she has to go today. If she somehow acts out, if something happens in there will be determined she does have to go to the hospital. Of course, she'll go to the hospital, but eventually she's still going to end up in the gym. >> Do you need him anymore? Did you see the video? No, he's good. >> Thank you. Everything you've told me up to this point is the truth. I swear to Can you just raise right here for me?

Cuz obviously she had a good minute to dump all the stuff out. >> Yeah, that was about it. Like as soon as he started to stuff flying, he stopped. >> Okay. So he obviously called. So like right before then is when this happened. So she came out, found you in the car and then just went ballistic. >> Well, she went back in for a minute and he came out and told me to get out of the car. out for the last >> however many times a day you >> 8 months or so we've been doing this she hasn't been going to work I've been going to work >> I've been going to work in her car I've got a client that I'm supposed to be at right now I'm probably going to lose this >> okay um and it's an all day ordeal >> yeah Jake and Katie are over there >> I don't know he he's a former military but he says he doesn't have any zeros on the gun just zeros in the house just a BB But she did slash all four of those tires with a knife. A knife is out here. The hammer's out here >> that she used to bash the back of the skull with. >> So that's his dog. There's a couple more dogs inside. Only one's probably not friendly and I already forgot her name. The little black mut Harley in case, but she should be in a cage. >> Okay. >> There's a mother-in-law suite in the back. Jake and Katie said she does have access to, but she removed all the locks. all the cameras. She broke yesterday after their 38. So, there shouldn't be any 59 on that part. But, >> okay. >> She's gonna go with the stick team with the K9 just so she can get that exposed. >> She was out here initially when we got here, but as I walked up to talk to him, she just went inside. She didn't like run or anything, but she was already I raided and drunk. She went inside and she's been drinking all night with her Zoloft. Okay. >> She ran inside, then she opened the door back up, kicked the dog out, said, "Here's your damn dog." And slam the door again. So, we haven't even attempted contact with her yet, >> but she's likely still drunk. That's not aggressive. >> Hands on him. >> You got lethal gap. >> There's an island right there.

Lean that way towards like that side of the road. I can't defend myself. You're stronger than me. Where have the medicated my ribs in the back of my head? I'm all burned up. He He always hits me. Then why do you keep coming back? >> Why don't you talk to us? >> A stupid question. Cuz you don't believe me. >> It's not that I don't believe you, but I'm going to believe you. >> Not you. You weren't here. The phoneers that were here this morning didn't believe me and I called in and told them that they just take his side because I'm the one crying and he's calm. They never believe me. I slashed him. It's my car and he wouldn't give me my keys and so I slashed him so he couldn't take it. >> My tires are like $100. >> You know he was trying to take you to your job. >> No, he wasn't. >> Why not? >> You're busy. >> Well, maybe you were a little too intoxicated to go to work. >> I wasn't intoxicated. And it was 7:00 in the morning. I had orientation at the breakers. He's lying and said I was >> Did you forget we were here? >> Yes. >> You walked into the house when I got here this morning. >> Yeah, I know. >> You ran out the back. >> And I was not intoxicated at all. >> You said absolutely. >> Your job says differently. >> What job? >> Flaggler steakhouse. >> Flaggler's steakhouse didn't even see me this morning. >> They said you showed up with blood all over your face >> because he beat me this morning. >> They just told me Flagler didn't see you, but now suddenly they did. The Breakers, not the Flagler. I went to orientation at the Breakers this morning and they sent me home because I have blood on my face and I can barely walk. >> You love it when you >> He took my car all night and never came home because he was out doing all night. And then when he came home, I wanted my car keys so I can drive to my job myself and he wouldn't let me. >> Remember closing the door on this morning? I knocked on the door.

I don't want to talk to you. >> Can I? >> Have you looked up his criminal record? >> He has a murder charge. >> Okay. >> He's realize that that murder charge has absolutely nothing to do with this. >> I'm just saying. >> What's your record? >> Nothing like this. >> I don't judge people. >> I never judge people by their records, but if you want to bring up records, neither one of you are clean. Okay, >> we don't we don't judge people based off records. We judge them based off the moment. We judge them based off the appearance in front of us, >> right? Because I'm hysterical and crying because I just got beat and he's calm and cool and collected. >> I'm judging him based off the fact that when we were here earlier, you had the opportunity to speak to us. >> I didn't want to talk to you. I have a right not to talk to you. I was crying. >> You do? Absolutely. And I was crying and I shut the door and I didn't want to see you and I don't want to see him because I'm scared of him. >> Why did you come back here then? >> It's my house. >> But you think you thought he wasn't going to be here.

So, you want to do something about it? How do you expect to do something if you don't want to talk? >> I didn't want charges. He's pressing charges. >> You only want to say something because you're going to jail. >> Of course I do. OF COURSE I DO.
