He's been here the past couple days. >> Mhm. >> So, I got an email. He got an email saying that [clears throat] his card has been spent yesterday. So, I was asking how did that happen? Cuz it was in Calbert where his little exit lives. So, that's where it all. >> So, you guys had an argument and then what happened? >> I threw a lighter and that's when Kevin yelled >> and that's it. >> That's it. There wasn't property being destroyed. You weren't being hit. Look at me, ma'am. Ma'am, look at me, please. >> Yeah. >> Okay. Will you do me a favor? Because people have made claims. Will you walk me through to show me that nothing's broken? You can walk right with me. I just want to make sure that >> Thank you. >> I do. >> Yeah. I send a hit, too. I want you. >> Yeah. He's going to want me probation. And as soon as soon as I get there, probation is going to come see me. I was supposed to went report this morning, but I didn't have a ride. >> Whoops. >> And my uh officer Norton >> Mhm. >> I report every time I supposed to. He told me as soon as I can get there, he going to come drug test me and if I pass, he going to let me go. I'm not even stressing that. I just did almost four years in prison. >> Why? >> Credit card fraud. >> He gave you four years for credit card fraud. How much did you steal? >> I did a little bit. >> Like, holy crap, no big deal. You got to steal a lot to get to get felony time for money. >> Yeah, I know. I did. >> Was like a couple hundred,000. >> I want to make sure before I leave that I just talked just like get aware. All everything that I own, minding my kids stuff is in there in her tote that I was just going through. >> Mhm. Mhm. >> I just want to make sure that she going to let my stuff stay right there where I know my kids stuff is safe. Is that okay? >> Yeah. There's no reason for her to to abandon the property outside and let it get damaged. That would be unreasonable. >> I want to make sure that she going to let my stuff stay there. Britney, >> I'll talk to her. I I'll talk to her for you. You're fine. You've been cool with me. I I'll talk to her. >> I mean, I've been cool with you, buddy. I I'd like to get my shorts on before I walk across the trailer park and my boxers. Can I step in and just make sure there's nothing >> closet? >> All right, we can walk out. How long's he been here? >> Not going to have too much. >> Okay. Are you scared of him? You look scared. >> My damn nose. Can I just scratch him inside the house? It's all right. >> Yeah, relax. >> Sweat. >> I'm not going to touch it. Um >> I was going to ask you to touch it. >> Are those I'm scared to lose. >> Did anything happen between you guys today? Did he hit you, strike you? No. Then look like you got bruising on it. Some of it's older, but is that coming from him? >> I don't have to answer that question. >> I understand that, but I'm not concerned necess Well, >> so your your hesitation leads me to believe that you did get hit today. >> Was it today? >> Was it the other day when we were out here? >> Cuz I know the other day when we were out here, you were physically shaky. And I was a domestic violence detective for the last five years. And every indication that I'm seeing is that you are a victim of domestic violence and we're worried about you. I can tell you're scared. >> Sudden one day my sister showed up at her work looking for him. She had a warrant. >> And we do have resources and ways to protect you if you'll let us. >> You mind if I sit? I had a kid came. >> But we weren't even I was asleep Kevin. I was asleep buddy and she woke me up about a a transaction that came through on her email about my cash app. I ain't got no reason to lie. Okay. But you understand that that's our entire job as people lying to us, right? >> Yeah, I understand that. But look, I come out the door. I told you straight up what was going on. >> Why didn't you come out the first time then? >> Man, I I was supposed to go report my probation today or tomorrow and weren't taken care of. I got a probation warrant for a substance abuse class. He told me to come in and pass my urine test and I and I'd be straight. I didn't have a ride this morning. My dad's going to take me in the morning. >> Yeah. Well, you know, that makes us hot when somebody don't listen to. >> So, I was going to go report in the morning and get this warrant taken care of. It's just for a substance abuse class that I didn't take. >> Here's what I know. Look, I'm just I'm not going to touch you, but you have a bruise on your chin here. You have bruises on your chest. I see multiple bruises on your legs. You have bruises on your arms on your forehead. >> That's a yellow bruise on your forehead. If y'all only been dating a month and a half, that's a lot of bruising for that short amount of time. And I've been doing this for 23 years. He's been doing this for 15. And like I said, the last five years I've been a domestic violence detective. And for something that intense to be taking place in such a short amount of time, I'm just going to be honest with you, that is a dangerous situation for you. >> Britney, I love you, baby. >> And you know why he's saying that? Cuz he knows he's scared. Because he knows what he's done to you. And I don't know your past or anything of that nature, but I know you don't deserve this. You don't deserve anybody to treat you like a doors stop, a kicking mat. >> Hey, you know how loud she gets anyways. >> Huh? >> You know how loud she can be anyway. >> Look, I mean child coming to get me and the other two guys. I'm scared around here. So, I don't know. Now, >> I don't know what you've been through even before this relationship. And I'm not going to pre pretend that I do. I've never been hit. I've never been assaulted. But I've spoke to a lot of victims who have. And I can tell you're terrified. >> But I don't need no new charges. But I was asleep. He You heard that man say what what voice he heard. >> Mhm. >> It was a female voice. I a He didn't hear no hollering or nothing out of me. >> You still need that? >> Okay. >> Can I do one thing for you? No matter what you decide to tell us today. Okay. How about that? Can I call project safe and have them come talk to you about the services they do offer? Okay. And then they'll talk to you and you can decide whatever cooperation. They don't work with us. They are independent agencies. So if you decide to work with them and not talk with us, that's fine. But I want to make sure you get at least some level of help. Okay? I do want you to think while I call them about >> Britney. I love you, baby. dude talking to us. Have him put him in a car. >> Love you, too. >> I ain't going to be I ain't going to be in jail but a couple days, baby. >> Couple days. That' be like a day. I thought you'd be out in like a today. >> Soon as probation come sees me. >> Well, when's he going to come see you? Today? >> Probably tomorrow. >> It's lazy, isn't it? >> Huh? >> Only probation. >> What? >> I just We're not probation officers. >> Hear some shoes he can put on. He's obviously got to go to jail. He got a shirt he can put on. >> Let's take a walk. No, just put them on here and then you can walk into my car. >> Okay. >> Thank you, officer. >> All right, sir. I'm shake your hand. >> Hold on. Let me get this out of my hand first. >> I don't I don't need them shoes, though. I can just wear my slide around. >> It don't matter to me, man. >> You got any infectious diseases? >> Britney, I love you. >> Hello. >> No, I don't have no disease, sir. >> Okay, >> Britney, are we good? >> Yes, we're good.

I'm standing here talking to you, making small talk. >> I pull the uh heels up right now. >> I mean, you >> It's fine. I'm an adult. >> I apologize. >> It's fine. I used to work in a jail. I've seen every little bit gibblet of more men than you ever will. So, >> you going to do the zipper for me? >> No, >> you ain't going to do the zipper. >> No, that's as far as it goes for me. >> Oh, man. You piece of No, I'm just playing. >> You know, I'm just playing. You ain't got to put the shirt on, man. You sure? >> Yeah. >> He's got a warrant. He's at least going to jail today for that. >> Okay. >> You look scared out of your mind. I can see that when you came to the door. You're like visibly shaking and you're covered in bruises. So, there's some >> scared. >> I can tell. That's why I asked you and that's why he asked you. This is not a good situation. I mean, those those those Tell me answer me this. Just answer me this.

No, she's not the one to press charges. >> Who would be the one? >> State of Georgia. >> State of Georgia. >> Yeah. >> What would they press charges on me for though? >> I have no idea. What you But what you asked is that would she press charges? She could say, "No, I don't want to press charges." And we would still do it cuz y'all been living together. You have a domestic violence relation, family violence relationship as uh lives live together. >> I mean, when I say a month, I mean I've known her a month. >> Okay. >> I stayed with her like a week or so. I moved out. >> Have y'all had intimacy? >> What do you mean? >> Sex. >> And we had sex. Yeah. A while back. >> And have you been planning to stay there until you get on your feet? >> Not really. >> How long when did you plan on moving out?

Who are y'all to each other? >> She is my uh my girlfriend. >> Okay. Uh, I met her probably a month ago. >> Month ago. >> Kind of seen each other on and off for the past month. >> Okay. How long y'all been living together? Did you move in right away or? >> I mean, I haven't really been living with her the whole time. I stayed with her for a couple of weeks and then I moved out and I recently just came back like day before yesterday. >> Okay. Um, >> when I say I come back, uh, I actually just brought my stuff into her house this morning. >> Still in a tote in her bedroom. >> All right. What was up with you coming through the window about last week? Uh, she my she had the door lock on the inside. Uh, >> okay. >> She I put my little boy through the window. >> Okay. >> It was nothing to it. Uh, >> but you said you just came back today. >> Yes, sir. I did. >> Okay. >> I've been back and forth messing with her and this other girl for about a month. >> How many days a week do you stay at this establishment? >> Maybe twice. >> Just twice a week? >> Yes, sir. >> She saying it was a little more than that. >> No more than two or three days a week here lately. >> Okay. At the beginning, was it full on two, three weeks? >> Yes, sir. And then >> she was saying it's about a month and a half, two months. about to have two months when we started. I'll tell you the exact date of May. >> May 16th, maybe I think exact date. >> Okay. All right. >> First time I ever come over this place. >> What happened today? >> I was sleep last night in her bed. >> Okay. >> Woke up this morning. She went to Advantage. Her friend brought her there. >> When she got back, I was still asleep. >> Okay. >> She made me a omelette. >> She made you a what? >> Omelette? I thought you said a vomit. I was >> No, no, no. >> What is that? An omelette. All right. the omelette and um I went back to sleep. >> Okay. >> And uh she woke me up hollering saying that there was a transaction in Colbert, Georgia, near where that other girl lived on my cash up car today. I told her that I have not been to Calbert today. It was a pending transaction that I made the other day. >> Okay. >> And she could log into my cash app and see. >> Okay. >> And she said I was [ __ ] lying. Whatever. I said maybe I'm not lying. It was it was all over the cash app transaction that was pending. It just cleared today and [snorts] said the email today. >> Okay. >> And that's all it was. I never hollered or actually when y'all got here this time. I was actually She said, "Baby, we go take a shower." Said, "You'll feel better." And I She said, "We'll take a shower together." >> You didn't yell at her. >> I got a little loud at first, you know, but I never hollered and cussed. Uh I actually told her, I said, "I'll just leave if you don't believe me." And she said, "No, she didn't want me to leave." Cuz that the young man that was out of the trailer, I don't know if you saw him. He said he come by and heard you yelling at her. >> Well, he >> this not so young man said he heard you yelling at her. >> He told me in front of him while ago that all he heard was a female voice. >> Well, right, wrong, officer. >> People tend to say things differently in front of you as they do in front of me. >> When I say I yelled, uh, I didn't yell at her in a threatening manner. Uh, by no means at all. I told her, "Damn it. I was just trying to argue with her about I know I'm telling the truth." >> Okay, let me ask you this question. What were the slamming against the wall sounds that both of them said they heard? >> She throw her vape or something other. I think >> a vape to make the whole side of the trailer shake. >> I don't know that I heard anything. Anything that got probably get stab. >> How does she have bruises on her arms, her legs, her chest, her forehead? >> I have no idea where those from. I just came home. I told you two days ago. >> Okay. You don't know where she got those bruises. How come anytime I mention about you hitting her, she becomes visibly shaken? And >> I have not ever put my hands on her, sir. >> Never. >> Never. No, sir. Look at my hand. >> Okay, I'll be back. So, I'll tell you what we know so far. Young man said he was coming by and heard you screaming sound like for help. Heard him screaming at you and heard something what he considered to be thrown against the wall so violently that he said the window shook. You know what I'm talking about there? I'm not going to ask you what that is yet. I'm just I appreciate you being honest. He said he was so scared he ran and got the groundskeeper. The groundskeeper come back, heard you screaming, Kevin yelling at you again, and he heard what he considered to be somebody being slammed against the wall again. >> Nobody You didn't say nobody. >> Well, I'm just saying that's what he thought. He said it was shaking, banging. Um, and I'll tell you what concerns me is doing this as long as I have a lot of times with abusers when you confront them with two eyewitnesses, the amount of bruises you have. Cuz I asked them, I said, "How did all those bruises happen?" Most people say, "Oh, you know, I pushed her." It's called minimization because they want to explain something away. You know, I pushed her. She failed. But it wasn't on purpose. The ones that are really dangerous to me is the answer he gave me was I ain't never touched her. She's a liar. She's crazy. She's a drug addict. It's all your fault. He has taken zero responsibility. He did admit to coming in through the window that night or that day saying he put his child through the window to unlock the door. But he is very calm. No, that's that's concerning to me because at least people that are in emotional state when they're angry when things just happen, they at least can explain it away of I lost control with my experience. You know what I'm saying? And it was a moment. Somebody that's calm and blames it all on you with all the face of this evidence in front of him tells me that one he doesn't care about you and two he's going to do it again cuz he is that calm. Like he thinks we have nothing on him. And that concerns me with the fact of how scared you are. I don't know if you understand what I mean by that. And you ain't got to answer this, but that tells me that in the, like he said, month and a half, two months y'all been together, he's probably been beating on you at least good four times a week. Not that much. How many times would you say? >> About three times. >> Three times. >> Oh, just three incidents. They're pretty good beating where And I don't say that to be trifling. I just You got a lot of bruising. >> Well, no, I wouldn't because eventually you're going to be >> I'm so thirsty, man. I want I want water. I ain't got no water. I'm just honestly, like I said, just having a chat with you. And believe it or not, I'm worried about you. I mean, >> when's the last time he hit you? >> Look up. >> Okay. Is that his chin one? Cuz that chin one and the forehead would look pretty fresh. >> Shares up with his daughters. You know, I have a freaking soft spot for kids. He's like, "You're gonna you're gonna leave me out here with my kids and have this walk this and that." So, of course, I'm going to meet again. He wanted to work stuff out. That's why I told him to leave. I was I didn't want didn't want to be here. He gra got me by the neck and threw me on the bed and I did. >> You did call 911 last night? >> Mhm. >> Okay. The violence stopped then? >> Yes. >> Where were they at when it was going on? coordinator in the hallway. >> Okay. Mind if I look at it? >> How did you feel when he was grabbed your neck? Did he just throw you in the bed or did he squeeze your neck or >> How' that make you feel? >> Like I was about to I couldn't breathe. >> Okay. >> I was about to die. >> How long do you think it went on for >> that time? If he It wasn't that long. 24 seconds. >> Kenny, how old are your daughters? >> My daughters are uh I got a four-year-old daughter and a seveny old daughter. >> Okay. Were they here last night? >> They were uh like I picked them up last night and as soon as I picked them up, I had their mother meet me directly and pick them up before we got to Britney's house. >> Okay. Cuz she's saying they were in this trailer last night. >> We came to her trailer and as soon as we got to her trailer, we left. Okay. So, here's this is important for you, Mr. Kenny. Do you know what a forensic interview is? >> No, sir. >> Forensic interview is an interview that we can do. We can mandate defects can mandate it. We can ask cooperation from your your wife, but if we get defects involved, they can they can order it. >> Yes, sir. >> Um, and what that is, that's a independent agency that are highly trained to interview children. >> Yes, sir. >> So that they're not leading questions. They get the truth out of children about what took place. >> Okay. When we talk to your children and if DeFax has them come in for a forensic interview? >> Yes, sir. >> Are they going to say that they witnessed you assaulting Miss Britney last night? >> No, sir. Absolutely not. I did not assault her last night. >> Cuz she's alleging that you threw her, grabbed her by the neck, threw her down on the bed, and was squeezing her throat, and your kids were going crazy, screaming, asking you to stop. >> No, sir. >> Ask my kids. They didn't see nothing like that last night. Absolutely not. >> Why would she make that up? I have no idea why she said that. She wasn't saying that while ago, >> but it doesn't matter what she was saying a while ago. >> Yeah, I understand. I don't know why she's saying that. The throw is actually she's got some kind of psychopath. She's crazy. No, I do love her.
