Just a little check up. >> I know you talked to the other officer. So just give me the run now. Like what? Why? What happened? >> I have no idea. This girl and I used to be friends years ago. Okay. Um, she showed up unannounced at my divorce proceeding last year, August 11th. I don't know how she got my address. I haven't talked to her since. >> That was back in August of last year. >> Yeah. Yeah. And I guess the only thing I seen is her and her struggling cuz she was trying to come in the house. This is my house, man. We have a 3-year-old upstairs. So, I got in the middle of it trying to, you know, get them away and just try to slam the door on her, you know, so she don't come up in the house. >> She started swinging on her. She got all over me. >> Yeah. Okay. Um, I said, "Get back." >> Saw that all this happened like right here. >> Yeah, right here. >> Okay. >> She got about right here. >> Mhm. >> And I kept trying to get the door. I said, "Sam, get back." I was trying to push her back and she got her fingers right here and I start pushing the door. I She probably from it. I wouldn't doubt it, but I said, "Get my house." And she wouldn't leave. And then she sat right there on the porch. And that's when I called you guys. Okay. >> So, I'm like, "Yeah, oh, I'm not doing this. This is I don't know. >> She's trying to She's trying to claim that she's that you guys have boyfriend girlfriend for the last five years. >> You stopped. Yeah. You stopped talking for a little bit. So, she just comes down here from drug court on a completely unannounced to talk to you because you harassed her. >> Yeah. No, she's actually made like three different Facebooks to try to contact me. She's even gone as far as like contacting my baby daddy, trying to make up some story about Michael. Um, and then I blocked her each time. But no, she kept like knocking on the door, like hammering the door, ringing the doorbell. My baby's asleep. So I answered the door and I was like, "Can you please leave?" And at that time, she's like shoved on me, trying to get in the house, and I was like shoved back. I'm like, "No, my daughter's in here." And then she grabbed me by my throat. And that's what I held for Michael. >> We've never been together. Me and her were just friends. Me and her been together over a year now >> and we live together. So I'm like, she don't even know my I don't know how she got my dress. >> She's blocked on everything. >> Okay. I mean, I'm a reserve. >> Do you have any injuries, ma'am? >> Yeah. >> I got a scratch there. >> Yeah. She went to grab up my watch cuz Michael told me to call the cops. So, I was trying to use my watch and she grabbed up my wrist, threw my glasses off, broke them. I think I got dicks though. Maybe not. >> But >> I was trying to separate them two and she got me a couple times. >> Okay. Yeah. Cuz the way she was describing is like she banged on the door, you didn't answer the door. She came answered the door. She was like describing like everything happened here and then kind of >> here. No. Nope. >> I had to get in the middle of them too because I didn't want any issues. I just wanted to get off my property. >> And she wasn't she was just pushing back on me trying to get in the house and I kept telling her, you know, I got a baby in here. And >> we have a three-year-old. >> So she she How did she get inside exactly? >> She was just pushing on me, grabbing, like I said, she grabbed my throat >> right here. Sam, can you step for the officer? I'm sorry. >> We're just trying to reenact this. She was like this trying to push like this. I got in between them two like this trying to push her back and push her out the door. And then when we finally got her out the door, she kept swinging at her and I was trying to separate them two and that's probably how she got me. And then I kept trying to close the door and she was like this trying to open the door and that's what got fingers. You probably say Mark fingers and I was just trying to get the door shut. I was literally like this >> trying to push them two back. >> Okay. >> All right. >> So, I I'm Do you guys want to fill out a uh written statement? >> Yeah. Yeah. >> So, I kind of had this one. >> I kind of had to improvise. These are normally crash report statements, but I'm all out of the regular forms, but it's pretty much kind of the same thing. Just a couple things you don't really have to worry about. Um, I need each one of your guys' name, birthday, address, phone number, and then you can just basically use the grids. >> So, you put your name, uh, birthday, address, phone number, and then skip down. Just give me a description as far as what exactly happened. >> Yep. >> And then you just sign somewhere in the bottom or something. >> You go get a couple. >> We're just watching. >> You're fine. >> Uh, what's your what's your name, sir? >> It's Michael. Did you guys ever have any kind of relationship or is it just friends? >> Is there is there any reason why she would be inclined to think that you guys had have been in a boyfriend? >> I mean, we had a friends with benefits type of thing at one point. >> Okay. >> Years ago, though, >> and she showed up unannounced at my divorce proceeding >> last year and I was just completely shocked. I was like, why are you even here? I and then she said she found it because she searched public record force proceeding public record anyways >> but we have never dated I have not I don't if she says she has textures please I'd love to see them I have nothing I blocked her on everything she said why she showed up >> um I guess because you guys have stopped talking for a while and then she basically want to confront catch claim that she is harassed her and all that fun stuff. Have you ever contacted uh [cough] her ever? Like Facebook or anything? >> She's messaged me a couple different times about different like random Facebooks. >> What kind of stuff was she saying through the messages? >> Oh, she's tried to get me and Michael to break up. Like she's been like, "Michel's cheating on you with me." Um what's other stuff? She tried to tell me that Michael had previous child charges against him. >> Um trying to get me to leave him. >> Uh just stuff like that. nurse. >> I know. I did. >> Of course. >> I was a cop for 12 years. >> Like I said, went as far as making a Facebook and like messaging my baby daddy and like trying to tell him the same stuff. Like Michael has a child charge. She's tried to say something about Michael's ex-wife. >> Um just anything and everything. Getting to either like leave Michael or cause issues. Like I said, she's even, like I said, messages my baby daddy and he me like, "What is this about?" And I'm like, "Dude, I don't know. behind a dance auto. [snorts] So, what I'm trying to ascertain is [clears throat] here's what I'm thinking. >> I mean, she has no reason why she would be here. You know, why why would she come from Groport all the way down here except for some kind of bad intentions. >> So, there's definitely a physical altercation between all you guys. I mean, once again, I think I could probably put it to where she would be the primary aggressor. Once again, no reason why she should be here. [snorts] The thing I keep on hanging up on is is is there a possible burglary charge as well? That's why I'm trying to finangle and figure out the threshold and that sort of thing. >> You met the fir you had first contact with her. All I seen was them struggling and that's why I ran in here to try to protect her because she's taller than her. I mean, she can handle her own of course, but I'm not going to let any hurt her, you know? >> It's just the natural instinct to protect her. Been trained to do this and stuff. Yeah. >> She's strong. Jesus. Yeah, especially when emotions are all over the whack. >> Yeah, I um I mean >> honestly I don't know if it would go that far, but definitely for sure. >> I was going to say it's the very very minimum. >> Very minimum, but yeah, you could see all over, man. She She got me good. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Yeah. It's >> so the I'm I'm just >> We could push the burglary portion. It's just that would be I mean she would go to jail tonight, be charged with burglary, and then it would have to be a speedy trial and then everybody gets subpoenaed and all that fun stuff. But >> of course, >> um if you're if you're okay with this, of course, because I can for sure >> prove that. This girl needs to be taught a lesson. I can't I want her away from me. >> Okay. >> I I don't know how she got my address. >> I don't know how she keeps bothering me. Like she doesn't understand that I I don't even want friends with her no more. She was a good friend of mine years ago when we worked at the casino and that's that's when she'll tell you we met at the casino and we were friends. >> Yeah. >> And >> Okay. >> But we never had a relationship. >> Yeah. Gotcha. You guys finish those up. I'm going to grab my camera and be right back in. Okay. >> All right. >> Oh god, that's great. >> Yeah. Sorry about that. Um, so you mentioned that the other lady had harassed you, stalked you, that sort of thing. Can you kind of go into detail about about that? I So last year his divorce got finalized. >> Uhhuh. >> Um the only reason why she is involved was so he could lose everything. And I I know that sounds really super crazy. >> Um but literally since she has been involved, >> we have not. Our like our everything about us and trying to talk >> Mhm. >> has changed >> like since August or so. >> No, since October of 2021. >> Okay. Gotcha. um is when they actually started talking. Once they started talking, she started giving them all these lies about me and you know that I'm a stalker, I'm this, I'm that. >> Mhm. >> Um and she and his ex-wife along with his ex-wife's best friend has been stalking me on my parents' property cuz that's where I live is with my parents up in Groveport. >> Okay. >> Um that's why I was actually going out to my car. I wasn't trying to run or anything. I was trying to wrap up police reports. >> Yeah. Um, >> and I'm just >> So, were they showing up in vehicles? Are they on foot or how were they >> No, they're they're what they're doing is well, the first time around they were in um his ex-wife's best friend's vehicle and they circled around my parking lot. >> Um the last time they went they were sitting in my neighbor's driveway, which is like in front of my house. >> Mhm. >> Cuz my driveway is really weird. >> And could like from a distance, could you like >> identify them like positively identify them? >> Okay. Um, so I did not expect her to be here. >> Mhm. >> Um, I just simply came to talk to him. I wasn't trying to get violent or anything. >> When's the last time you had contact with Mike there? >> This is the first time at this actual location here. This is the first time, but the last time I actually had physical contact with Mike was August 20, no, August >> 11th of last year. And things were not violent between us. We actually had a genuine conversation. But it's been a 32year-old Justin here. >> Was that a face to face conversation? >> Yeah, it was at his courthouse. It was at his divorce finalization. >> Gotcha. Did you guys >> like we hugged, we were talking, we were I was holding him. >> Mhm. >> I was everything. And but when she is around, he is a completely different person. >> Have you guys talked via telephone, text message, social media, anything like that? >> He won't answer his text messages and it's because she's around. >> When's the last time you had contact with him? like text message for example. >> I don't know because honestly when the last time I actually tried to talk to him via text, she got involved. >> Mhm. >> And they were all threats. >> Okay. Now, how long ago do you think that was? >> March of last year. >> Okay. So, you basically haven't talked to Michael in pretty much a long time, right? >> Can you kind of see from >> But it's But it's all her. When she's not around, he is a different person. When's the last time you and Michael hung out from besides the divorce hearing? >> That was a thing. >> Can you kind of see where I'm starting to get at? >> It's a little out of place, especially if you live in Grove Court. You guys haven't communicated talked for since 2021. You show up here and then there's some kind of disorderly some kind. >> I do want her arrested for stalking because I know she's going to come back at one point. you know, if the stalking is occurring in a different jurisdiction, I can't enforce that. That would be up to >> Well, my police department won't do anything. >> Yeah. So, and that's basically my standpoint. So, the only thing I can deal with is what happened here, >> right? >> So, it could go basically one of two ways. >> Okay. >> Which are not great. First way it could have went would be potentially aggravated burglary and or because once again you guys haven't communicated since 2021. They show up here tonight and there's definitely some type of physicalation that occur. They have injuries. cuz I haven't looked at you yet, but I'm sure you probably got something out of the whole deal. But it just doesn't make any sense why you would show up here to try to contact him and then an obvious physical altercation cuts loose. That doesn't it just doesn't paint a very good picture. Okay. So, you are going to be arrested tonight and booked in for assault. >> Okay. >> Which is in misdemeanor the first degree. >> Okay. >> You could have went burglary, which is an F1, felony one. We're not doing that. >> Okay. So that's >> are they putting a restraining order on there? >> They can apply for one um either a restraining order or a protection order, but they will have to contact the court if that contact the magistrate and whether whether one gets issued that's between them and the magistrate. >> Am I going to be able to get released on it? >> It [clears throat] wouldn't be. >> It wouldn't be tonight. >> 68. Okay. >> It wouldn't be tonight. Today is Saturday. No, today's Sunday. Tomorrow morning we have court. Okay. >> So, more than likely probably be released. Don't hold your breath, but more than likely be released tomorrow morning. So, yeah. Court 0900 hours. >> Mhm. >> Okay. >> Can I make a phone call? >> Um, where is your phone? >> Wherever my purse is at. >> It's up front. Uhoh. Get your phone. I'll put on speaker. That way you can talk wherever you need to. Um, I'll look at your hands. If you have any injuries, I'll take pictures of those. Take pictures of theirs. And then >> that's basically it. Like I said, it could go completely different direction to go to the the felony portion which said we were basically in the threshold. So like even just another 3 in further inside the house is probably where we would end up going. >> So any questions or anything for me at the moment? >> Um I want can she get charged for putting hands on me? >> So here's the other the other part of the story here. She's lived here with Michael or whoever, who knows how long. This is their residence. This is their house. You show up from Groveport completely unannounced. They're trying to say that you were the primary aggressor regardless. There was some type of verbalation, physicalation. So, they would have to a degree as far as a right to defend themselves in their property. So some would defend it with which thank heavens it didn't happen because things happen probably pretty quick. So it just ended up getting physical with as far as personal hands that sort of thing. So I'm not going to arrest her for assault because it just doesn't make any sense. If we were trying to get >> I want her arrested. >> It's not how it's going to go. >> Okay. >> So I will document everything you said. Document everything that they said. But >> what's going to happen with my car? >> It should be fine. Um which one's your car? It's the blue pilot in front >> right there. >> Yeah. >> Okay. It should be fine. Um, it's parked legally, so there's no reason why it would get towed. It's locked, correct? >> It should be. >> Okay. I can also check that before we take it off. Um, so I'm going to grab your phone, check your car, and I'll be right back in a few minutes. Okay. >> Get the statements done. >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. Thank you. And oh, I don't want to show you something. Yeah. So, this is who she goes by and she's been blocked. >> Okay. >> I don't have any numbers of her. I probably have numbers that she calls from and I block them every single time. >> Okay. >> So, yeah, that's who she goes by, but she's been blocked. >> All right. Cool. Beans. Uh, where were your injuries at, ma'am? >> Uh, do you know how to apply for a protection order? Yes, I >> if if that's something you're interested in or I can refresh your memory. >> We need to We have kids in this house. >> Yeah. I don't need that. Um >> basically you go down to Chil Municipal Courthouse >> Y >> and uh get a petition for a protection order. >> Yeah, sure. Sure. >> And then >> Well, with her being arrested out of a out of a violent offense, you might be able to get an exparte, >> but uh I just go down the courthouse on Monday. >> Um any other questions or anything? When what is she charged with burglary? >> Two. >> So if that's reasonable for you. >> Yep. Yes, sir. >> She needs to be tossed up, man. She's crazy. >> Yeah. >> All right. If you guys need anything else, just let us know. Okay. >> Thank you. >> Have a good night. Sorry about that. >> Michaela was booked into the Ross County Jail on one count of assault [music] after targeting her former flame's wife. The couple didn't wait. A protection order was filed.
