Okay, >> you can take these off because I cannot >> listen. Do you have anything on you that's going to poke and stick me? >> Nothing at all. >> All right, >> don't mind me. I was asking my partner a question. >> No, I've never been in this situation. >> Okay. >> I don't have nothing to hide. >> I don't have nothing to hide. >> All right, have a seat. >> Step in. >> Can you guys take this off? >> No. >> Is this I'm going to give this to your daughter. Okay. Your lip gloss in your pocket. A relative arrives to take custody of the minor and vehicle. Officers explain the safety concerns that led to the arrest. >> Hey, Marissa. So, I can't get into all of it right now. Okay. But what we need is you to drive um their car and the the daughter um so I spoke to her. >> Yeah. He gave you permission to take the car and the child back home. I can't get into it, but she's under the influence. Okay, that's that's >> I know it. I know it's not an excuse. Tomorrow is her birthday. My brother who committed suicide. >> I'm so sorry. >> They're both born on the same day. So, >> it's tough times, right? >> Can I see her? >> No, because she is not happy and she's we're just going to >> Oh, yeah. Okay. >> She's already gone actually. >> She's in a car. She's leaving. >> So, can I can I ask what exactly happened? I told you that she's under the influence and that's all that we can say. >> Okay. Okay. >> She's she's in she's in >> No, she's in the back of the police car. She's going to jail now. >> No conditions. When I say like >> I'm on I understand. >> If it was like Listen, >> get somebody to pick you up. Okay. But no. >> Get her now. She's >> I can't We can't just get her now. >> Can't just get her. >> No, it's way past that point. >> Cannot. >> She had her 12-year-old daughter in the front seat while she's driving. You're talking about get her to go home? Absolutely. >> You can get the child in the car. >> Okay. >> Absolutely. >> Listen, this is a >> They gave me permission. >> I know this seems bad, her going to jail for this, right? But I promise you what, this is the better alternative than if we didn't stop her and she ran through that light and cream somebody cuz she would be in jail for the rest of her life. >> The driver is transported for processing. She denies impairment while officers proceed with standard DUI procedures. >> Florence. >> Oh, what? alcohol >> or some other alcoholic beverage. >> Sir, I've never been in this situation. >> Okay. So, I have to go to we have to go to our headquarters because I have a bunch of paperwork to write and we're going to go through another task and then we'll go from there. Okay. >> I've never been in this. >> Well, that's a good thing. >> To drive drunk because I'm afraid of this situation. >> What situation is that? >> Driving under the influence is what I'm telling you. But I'm not going to be violent if you change this. Like >> I will. I can't do it in here. When we get there, I'll gladly loosen them for you. >> At least loosen at least. >> When we get over there, I gladly will. Just remember, they're not meant to be comfortable. It's steel. >> I've never been in this situation. >> I got you. >> I don't know why they said I'm drunk, but I'm not drunk. This is why I didn't get drunk. >> Driver, too. What's wrong? The driver, Denna Christian Bennett, was charged with driving under the influence DUI and child neglect without great bodily harm. Remember, refusing field sobriety tests does not prevent an arrest. Officers may rely on observed behavior and other evidence. Arranging a safe ride and avoiding driving after any potential impairment helps protect both passengers and others on the road. This is the reaction of netisonens to this situation. The officers stayed focused on safety, especially with a minor in the car. It's interesting how much weight observations carry when tests are refused. Glad they made sure the passenger had a safe way home. You think the officers were out of options here? Watch what happens next on the body cam and tell us if you would have done the same. The next incident is when mom screamed as she was kicked out of a moving car. >> Don't choke me at home. >> Oh, hang on. I jipped you. I have better laws. >> Oh, he had better stickers, buddy. >> I jipped you. On January 26th, 2025, police officers arrived at a gas station where a woman was assaulted and forcibly removed by her partner from his car with her 5-year-old son. Her partner is suspected to be so high even the birds are jealous. >> Hello. >> What happened? >> We did not win this truck. started at home. >> What? >> Hit me in the face and choked me and then I went out to his mom's. >> You went out to his mom? >> I ran out of gas and he brought us here. >> What's it? Do you know his mom's address? >> I don't know the address. I just know it's right off of the the black top. >> Okay. How far up? >> Um, it's like right in between the single black top and center line. >> Okay. Can I take a picture of your face real quick before they count 25 22 and 14 or 23 down is your sweatshirt ripped? What? How did you >> That was a dog fight. Um and >> where did this happen at? >> Um he threw me out here. >> He threw you out of the car here. >> He punched me in the throat in the face sitting right here in the pump in the fuel island.

Do you know if he does he do drugs or I don't think we've lived together for a year and it >> check out is there there's a child there's there's a child here somewhere >> an officer checks on the child inside the store and asks staff about surveillance cameras that may have captured the incident >> he's right there >> apparently the child was in the car >> a police officer goes into the convenience store at gas station to see how her son is doing. >> She said he threw he threw her out right here into the pump and so I don't think that came or something. >> You can go set with him. Okay. I'll get I'll talk to you when they're all done with you. All right. >> Went around. It was like he was coming back and doing I don't know what he was, but he's been back here since we've been here. He came back and dropped your gas. >> It's okay. Your mom >> Excuse me. Sorry. Do >> you guys have cameras out on your fuel islands? Okay. Do you have access? >> We're not on the fuel island. We got >> officers speak with potential witnesses and gather identifying details while continuing to assess the situation. >> Okay. >> And then we have one out here. >> He's your manager. I can access that, I'm assuming. Or >> Yeah. >> Dan Burke Wessles. >> What's that? >> Wessles is over at Keytown. Just go and ask for Dan Burke. He can he can probably see the cameras from there. Okay. >> Let me see. >> Will you call maybe and ask if you don't mind? Thank you. Just because of the seriousness of the issue, I'd like to see him right now. Looking out the window and he says, "No, we're not talking." And he said, "Yeah, they're just talking to your mom and he goes, my dad hates my mom." >> Yeah, that's too bad. >> I said the guy in the red truck. He said, "Yeah, >> what's your name? John Cash. >> Good. What's your middle initial John? >> Was number one on the line. Going to try to send an officer from their Franklin Street address. Would you like him?

You >> have any medical problems at Chin? >> No. >> Okay. >> Are you allergic to anything? >> No. >> Okay. Do you take any medications by chance? >> No. >> When you No cuts like that anywhere. >> Did he punch you in the face or did your face hit the ground when he threw you out? He >> He punched me in the throat and the face. >> Throat. Did he choke you? Can I see your throat? >> He choked me at home, but um here it was he punched me. >> He choked you earlier at home. >> She reports difficulty breathing during the earlier incident and describes escalating behavior. Officers discuss safety planning and confirm she has a place to go. >> Did you feel like you were going to lose consciousness? Like did you lose air? Like >> Yeah. >> I couldn't breathe. I was fighting. Okay. >> I probably scratched my own face, but >> Well, there's obvious signs of on your neck that he did choke you. I completely believe you. I don't think anyone's not believing what you said today. So, I mean, there's other people that also saw it. Well, we're going to try our best to find him today. Okay, we promise that. But is there a safe place that you and your son can go? >> My mom. >> Do you want Do you have your phone? >> Do you want to try? >> She'll be on her way. >> She's on her. Okay. You told her already. Perfect. We're going to try to make sure to get him in jail tonight. Okay. Do you have his location by chance? No. So, this started at home and he choked you at home and then you came here. What started this whole argument? You running out of gas? >> I don't really know to be honest. He just This was like being really mean and >> Yeah. >> Does he have any mental health? >> The woman states the partner made threats during the drive. Officers initiate efforts to locate him, including requesting a phone location ping. >> Health issues or anything like that? >> I don't know. Or is he just kind of an [ __ ] all the time? Yeah, just just an [ __ ] Does he have a drinking problem or drug problem or anything? >> Doesn't really drink. I mean, if he does drugs, he's never been around me. >> Have you seen any signs? Like, has he been losing weight or not eating? >> He's like really irritable all the time. >> And I went to my mom's house and I saw him. I was trying to get my parents where they would come over to the house with me so I can get my stuff, but I saw him going to his mom's house. So, I followed him to get him to come back to the house so I didn't like take things that weren't mine, you know? And I ran out of gas at his mom's house, so he took us here and he was just like talking [ __ ] the whole way and threatened to to wreck the truck and he said, "I'll kill us all." >> Okay. What is his phone number? >> Oh, >> do you know if it's ver he is Verizon or >> um I think it's straight talk. >> Okay. County 12. She's advising that prior to this incident, he was threatening harm on himself and both the little boy and her have a phone number for you to start a ping when you're ready. >> Officers explained potential charges and the importance of documentation, noting that physical evidence supports proceeding regardless of victim cooperation. >> Straight talk. I'm not sure if it's Ryzen or AT&T tower.

Okay. That means that we're going to know exactly where he's at so I can send law enforcement there to make sure he's okay. And then if he's okay, we're going to take him to jail. Okay. He obviously committed a crime here. Okay. Punching you in the face, punching you in the neck, and throwing you out of the truck. Obviously, with your son in the truck. Okay. Is that his kid, too? >> No. >> No. with getting choked at your house, would you be willing to file a report with Neoga or Neoga or Cumberland County as well? So you he can be charged with that as well because that's a felony. Okay? If he chokes you, that's a felony. Um also, this is also going to be a felony cuz it happened in a public place. Okay? Your cooperation is key to this. However, even uh because there's physical marks and scars, I I'm going to press the state will press will press charges on him no matter what. Okay? I'm doing everything in my power right now to make sure he goes to jail because he deserves it, right? But and so you make sure you're safe. We obviously can't be around 24/7. However, that order of protection, if he calls you, contacts you, comes 500 ft away from you, anything, we can take him to jail. It's an automatic night in jail, no questions asked. Okay? Please do that for us cuz us as law enforcement, we really want to see that. >> Officer has the suspect pulled over on a traffic stop, >> county 12, just have him check his mental health and then 1095. So there you go. Officers offer medical transport, provide guidance on monitoring symptoms, and begin formal reporting procedures. You >> just have to offer your ride to the hospital if you want to go with us to the hospital based on what happened today. Um, but your right to refuse. We can't force you to go. I will let you know if you start having any neck or back pain, any numbness in your arms or legs or anything like that that you probably should go get checked out over the next couple of days. If you are developing like some light symptoms, I would go get checked out because that can all be attributed with hitting your head or getting hit in the head or whatever. So, just pay attention to yourself over the next couple of days and if you need us back, we're here, okay? Give us a call and we'll come right back out. Okay. >> Um, >> we'll have you sign a piece or sign our computer real quick and then we'll let you get on with your business. Okay. >> She's going to need to file a report with them as well.

It's going to basically tell you how to get an order of protection, all your rights as a victim. Okay. He's being taken to jail. So, >> officers collect additional details, document messages, and explain protective measures and next steps for safety. >> If you got stuff you need to get, I would go get it now. However, obviously your mom's a safe place right now. everything that's happened. I wouldn't I wouldn't want you and your son to be alone anyway cuz that's just cuz it's a lot. Is he messaging me? >> Yeah. >> Can I take pictures of it? >> Call me on the way here. >> Can I go ahead and cancel the first? >> If you do get an order of protection and you guys both live there, is it his house? Your house? Both your head? >> Um >> she has a place to go. She wants >> Yeah. I would, to be completely honest with you, to save you a lot of heartache in the long run, I would probably just move out and move back in with your mom. Um because with the judge gave getting oral protection that's going to make the judge can rule that he can't live there.

So, you guys get here. >> He was talking [ __ ] away here. >> Like just being a dick and I just the whole time telling him to be quiet. If he wanted me to not say anything, then he needed also not say anything because I'm an adult and I'm allowed to do the same things he's allowed to do. >> Okay. So, >> officers advise on protective orders, living arrangements, and the impact of the incident on the child. They initiate a report involving child welfare services. >> Get here and he said something else and then the next thing I know, I can't even remember.

And I these situations only get worse. >> It never gets better. I I just hope and pray that for you, be a mom. Be be strong. I know it takes a lot of courage to get away from him, but you got to you have to. You don't want to put your son through this. >> You're not he's not, you know, because your son was involved. I had to make a DCFS report. Don't be scared about that because you didn't do anything wrong. You were very courageous getting your son out of the way. >> The interaction concludes with officers providing resources, paperwork, and contact information while ensuring the woman and her son have a safe plan. >> You did everything you're supposed to do. However, I'm going to, you know, put in there that, you know, you're you're going to be with your mother. It's a st safe stable environment. But if you do end up going back and living with him, DCFS is probably going to have a big big gigantic issue with that because that's going to say you're enabling abuse on your child, right? >> So, you could attempt you could potentially something bad could happen with your kid and obviously you don't want that to happen. I'm not trying to scare you. I'm just trying to I'm begging you to do the right thing for yourself and your child and your family and to get away with them. Get the order protection, all that stuff. Okay? I've got a little little I've got a little one at home and if somebody did that in front of my little one, I probably wouldn't have a job anymore. So, >> I'm gonna have a paper for you to sign and then you can you can get out of here. Okay. >> Don't be afraid to call us. Okay. >> Yeah. >> Thanks, guys.

No guns. And I thought, does he own guns? >> I don't know. He says he does, but I've never seen >> He told you. He says he's has guns. >> Yeah, but I'm a felon, so I'm not allowed. >> He's not supposed to. Be honest with me. He's a mess. It sure sounds like it. I wish I could tell you. >> Yep.

So, uh, if you need anything, just contact My name is John Torbeck. Uh, contact the sheriff's office and you can talk to me. Okay. >> All right. You guys have a good luck to you. Okay. I hope you're good. >> The partner was taken into custody based on allegations of physical assault, including striking the woman, choking her earlier, and forcing her out of a moving vehicle. Remember reporting incidents promptly and documenting injuries or evidence can help authorities take appropriate action. Prioritizing a safe environment and seeking support resources are important steps after a domestic incident. This is the reaction of netzens to this situation. Glad the officers checked on the child right away and kept things calm. The follow-up questions really helped clarify the timeline. Good to see they provided resources and a plan for safety moving forward. The tension is already high. Or so it seems. What the body cam captures next saves a life pause and comment what you do here.

He was fussing with me. um when I first got here. >> The woman repeats claims of choking and a firearm threat, stating she left and re-entered the home multiple times during the argument. >> He choked me, but um I didn't call y'all. And then right before I called y'all, he pointed the gun at me and that's when I ran out the door. He's saying she got home at 4:00. He was like, "Where the f were you?

He's still threatening me back and forth. >> When you say threaten, what do you mean? >> Like threaten to kill me. I'mma kill you when you I'mma kill you today. I don't care about living. Say I don't care about living either. I'mma kill you. I don't care about living. I'm like, "Okay."

All right, I put my bag down. >> Further questioning highlights conflicting timelines and actions. Officers note the woman's admission to throwing objects during the dispute. >> Okay. >> And he comes outside throwing lotion, threaten me with a gun. So, >> okay. When he when you say threatened with a gun, what do you mean exactly? >> Wait a minute. That mean outside like he come out the door with the gun like I'm going to shoot you. I'mma kill you. That's why I ran outside and call y'all. >> Call y'all from heaven. >> Okay. Do you know where it's stored? It may be in a dresser under the mattress. >> Okay. Do you want to go inside and we'll see if it's in there? >> Hi sweet girl. What's your name? >> Lily. Beautiful name. How old are you? >> You're three. >> Yeah.

I love it. It's beautiful. See? >> I see that. >> See? >> I see that. >> I see. A face. >> Okay. Okay. Um, just real quick. So, when you say he choked you before, um, you said he put both hands around your neck. Was it pressure? Was it just placing around your neck? What was that? >> It was like he could like I couldn't breathe. >> You couldn't breathe. >> So, I managed to get away from him. >> Okay. How did you manage to get away from him? Just push him away. >> Okay. When you say push away, how did you do that? Just like both hands. >> Like where at? Where did you push him? On the chest. Okay. >> I said I'm going to talk to him again. Get his information. Get his side again. So she's saying he chokes her, but there's no marks whatsoever. She's like, >> "Officers conclude the physical evidence aligns more closely with the man's account, including damage patterns and object placement." >> She's not really >> No, it's just like I pushed him. Like, no. >> If somebody if you can't breathe >> and somebody has enough force on your neck to not be able to breathe, you're not pushing them. >> Whatever it takes, you won't, >> right? >> And he he's going to mark some injuries, >> right? And he's saying she came home around 4:30 >> after doing cracking, >> right? And she's saying with the babies, >> I came home at 4:00 with both kids. I put the kids down on the couch. He comes out. What are you doing? Yada yada yada. And then he chokes her. So she gets out of the house with the baby. She said she sits out here like 30 minutes, goes back in, does whatever, comes back out, takes her car, and moves it up the road so that he wouldn't take her kids. And then she said, you know, she comes back and then they're arguing, arguing, arguing, and then she comes outside and he comes out with her with firearm saying, "I'm going to shoot you." >> But apparently the whole time they're arguing it's, "I'm going to kill you. I don't care. I'm going to kill you. I don't >> That's after. She throws stuff." >> Yeah. Yeah. She's throwing stuff with the lotion. >> Right. And I can't tell if it's like a little >> He got a mark right here on his arm and right here on his arm. He said he he when she threw the Thomas the Tank Engine at him. He blocked with his arm, >> which would make sense because it's in pieces. >> Yeah. >> Um Yeah. There's like a little mark here that I saw, but I couldn't tell like blood blistering sometimes. >> Yeah. Like it it looks like it got from like an abrasion or hit. >> And first off, she's stolen her own phone, >> right? >> Yeah. That that's >> at him. I don't think that she if she threw the phone, which she admits to doing. I don't think she intended to hit the child. >> No. >> No. So I'm >> The woman is placed under arrest for family violence battery. During custody, she removes handcuffs once requiring officers to resecure her intended to hit him with >> and the kid if it hit the wall like she's saying or the door and it ricochets off. I could see that happening especially if a small child is sitting there. >> She admits that it's been a lot of back and forth. >> Yeah. >> Cuz after she was talking about I came outside and I moved my car and I parked it. Okay. >> Okay. Well, if you get choked, wouldn't you move the car to somebody else's house to get away entirely? >> For once, if I get choked out, I'm not moving my car. Coming back. >> No, there's no marks on her whatsoever, like I said. So, I'm going to look at this jacket real quick. >> Hi, Miss Lily. >> How come? It's got lotion all over it. >> And it doesn't look like it's that. >> No. She said she had to take it off because they were tustling on the ground. If they were tussled on the ground, she'd have the dirt. >> And it's got like lotion. It looks like it was just sitting there >> and when it got squirted up, it smacked it. Mr. Wall, do you have your ID on you by chance? >> Okay. Do you know your ID number by chance? >> No. >> No. Okay. Um, how do you spell your first name? >> S E D. >> Okay. So, just traditional spelling. >> Yeah. So, just so I'm clear, you've been together like on and off for the last three years. You've lived here about three months. And then the children are not biologically yours, but the little one, Joshua, you're on his birth certificate, correct? Okay. All right. So, walk me through again what happened today. >> Yeah. Just so I'm completely 100% clear. >> All right. She comes in. >> Okay. What time was that? >> Uh 4:35. >> About 4:35. Okay. >> Uh I was in her sleep, so Okay, she knocked on the window for me to let her in. >> Okay. So I let her in. I go back to the bedroom, lay back down.

He said she comes home, knocks on the window, has both kids. Uh he lets her in. Hey, where you been? She has an absolute meltdown. Um she's running back and forth from outside to inside picking stuff up, throwing things at him in the house. She takes her phone, throws it at the door a couple times. The door opens. She throws it at him. That's when it hits the kid. Um, the lotion he said was outside. She comes outside, slips on her ass, drops a lotion. That's where it explodes everywhere. >> So, yeah. So, um, battery family violence. All right. Mama, will you come down here, please? All right. So, you're being placed under arrest for battery family violence. He's got marks on him from you throwing stuff at him. All right. Anything?

U there's a bunch of different phones in there that we saw. >> There were a bunch of phones in the house that we saw, but she did not have a phone on her. Can we? >> The woman was charged with family violence, battery, and child cruelty based on officers observations at the scene. Remember, in domestic incidents, officers rely heavily on physical evidence and consistent statements when accounts conflict. Maintaining control of emotions during disputes can help prevent situations from escalating into legal consequences. This is the reaction of netzens to this situation. You can see how the officers focused on what evidence they could actually verify. Situations like this get complicated quickly when both sides tell different stories. Good that they checked for a weapon instead of assuming. Everyone thought it was too late until the body cam shows the exact second officer step in. Did you predict that rescue? He said, "You're going to have mess with me today and try to rip my off me." So, I got off the couch as fast as I could >> and we were arguing about how much time she's spending with her girlfriend and not trying with me. But that was like literally it. >> Okay. >> On March 17th, 2025, a domestic dispute between a woman and her husband escalated into a heated confrontation that nearly turned violent. The conflict reportedly stemmed from a private matter of intimacy. Fearing for her safety, the woman fled the residence and contacted law enforcement. >> Hi, man. >> So, what's going on today? >> I got taking my knees to work. >> Yeah. >> And he started yelling at me, but it was fine. I was just sitting there. >> And this was your husband? >> Yes. >> Okay. And then I told him because we already have one of those behavioral order protections. So I told him to stop or else I was going to call it in because this is an everyday thing. >> Mhm. >> So he took my phone from me, proceeded to smash it. Well, proceeded to try to bend it in half. >> Mhm. >> And then I said, "Well, I'm just going to leave." He tried to force me to have sex with him. Then I got up to get out of the door. He picked my phone back up, threw it at my car, and I just sped off. Okay. >> Are we there with them? >> Do you have your phone with you? >> I don't know where it's at. He threw it at me when I was driving away. >> Okay. So, it's probably somewhere in the parking lot. What was >> this? Happened at their home. >> And then I drove to her because I have no idea what I'm doing right now. >> Okay. >> I didn't pick my >> What's your last name? >> There's a vehicle complaint. >> Were you in the process of trying to call police? >> Yeah. I had my phone on me getting ready to swipe up and call 911 and I couldn't. He snatched my phone right from me. >> Officers clarified details of physical contact. She describes him grabbing and struggling over the phone and attempting further unwanted contact before she left. >> Okay. >> Okay. Did uh he get physical with you at any point? >> Grab my phone for me, but that's it. He starts trying to me to have sex with him. >> Okay. So, where where did he make physical contact with you? >> He wrestled me to get my phone and then he tried me to take my pants off, but I would have let him do it. >> Okay. And by wrestle, what do you mean? >> Like I just had my phone in my hand and he kind of like came at me this way, grabbed it out of my hands and was like just my hands around trying to grab the phone. >> So, did he make unwanted physical contact with you? >> I'm trying to take my Absolutely. >> Okay. Uh, where's your car at? She provides a timeline stating the argument began shortly after she arrived home and escalated when she refused his demands and mentioned calling police. >> Direction changed to a full stay away. >> We're we're going to work on this. I'm going to go get my computer so that we can get started on that statement. If the trooper is heading to the trailer park, hopefully um he's able to try and get him separated from the children if he's still home. I go get her niece and take her to the kids. >> That I don't >> Has he ever gotten with the kids? >> No. >> No, it's just always you. So, the kids should be generally okay for right now. We will make sure that they're safe and if we are able to locate them and arrest him. We'll make contact with you and one of us will stay on scene until somebody gets close by. Again, Dogwood's not too far away. >> After some time, the officer takes a statement from the victim regarding the incident. The whole argument started because he said that I'm going to with him today or he's going to flip the [ __ ] out. And I said, "No, I'm not doing that." And that's how it all started. >> And you're 25. >> Mhm. >> She uh heard some of your friends. >> Officers document prior incidents, including repeated phone interference and ongoing conflict, while coordinating a response to locate the husband at the residence. Yeah, he's pulling up my niece at work. >> She has sent me screenshots of it. Sad. I have Harley's phone. I'm looking for because I need to leave in an hour. She left the house. She's either down at work for a drive or she's at Bree's house and I don't know how to get a hold of Bri to let Harley know I need her home because her phone is in my hand. Her phone is in my hand. >> Uh around what time did this occur? >> 45 minutes ago. >> Okay. >> So, he didn't shatter my phone when he threw it. He just threw it or it's in his hand shattered. But he got his way by me not being able to call the cops because he took it. >> Okay. So around March 17th, I'm just going to say 11:50 you were at home. You have you just did you just get home? >> I just got home. I just got home maybe 10 minutes before all this happened >> and he started arguing with you because he wanted to have sex with you. >> It started over a text message at first and then it went to verbal. And >> what did he say about um you having sex with him? >> He told me you are going to have sex with me today or I'm going to cause a scene. And I said, "You are not going to tell me what I have to do." And he said, "No, I'm telling you. You're going to do this or else." Whichever phrase he used. >> Okay. What happened after that? >> He came out to the where I was. And I was on my phone and he was screaming. So I reminded him that we have an OP. Like we can't be like this, especially in front of the kids. And I told him that I would call 911. And then that's when he took my phone. He takes my phone every single time I tell him I'm going to call the cops. Meanwhile, my 2-year-old daughter is sitting there completely screaming. >> Okay. What happened after that? >> Then after he got my phone, he was up with my phone still yelling, tried to bend my phone in half over like the TV stand. >> Officers discuss potential violations, including breach of an order of protection and risks involving children present in the home during the incident. So, he should still be at the house. >> Y >> uh definitely going to have charges on him. >> Yeah. >> Um he is texting her cousin stating that he needs to leave the house in about an hour. So, I'd like to try and >> He doesn't have car seats though. They're in her car. >> Yeah. I'd like to try and have us distract him for a time being before he leaves for work because he's not he's not going to work today. He's going to have to wait. >> It's for driving. >> Well, he's going to have to work that out himself. If I go back there, it's not going to be good. >> Yeah. An OP violation for sure. Bradman second. Uh possibly endangering. And then criminal mischief if the phone is damaged, but definitely criminal mischief because uh >> she was trying to call. She was about ready to try and call us because his arguing was escalating and she wants to up the OP to uh stay away. >> Okay. So, it's just a refrain from him. >> Just a refrain from him right now. If we had warrants out for him before. >> Yes. And he's >> dipped and dived from us. >> Yes. >> Yeah. >> He's going to cause a scene, but I have babies in there. >> Okay. >> My dog will not you. I promise. >> Dog's friendly because you had another ex violate an order of protection from the jail. Correct. >> That was him. >> Oh, this is him. >> This is him. >> Oh, yeah. Yeah. >> We're still going through court for everything. >> Okay. And some more charges on to that because he's within 5 years of being convicted of violating an OP. So, it's going to be a felony contempt and then aggravated family offense. >> The woman recounts fleeing the home quickly, leaving belongings behind and driving to a safe location while the husband remained at the residence. >> Pled guilty to it all on Thursday. And he's supposed to start probation next month. That's when he goes back for like the terms and agreements or whatever that they have to do. >> How does this all start tonight? >> Because I want to have with him. >> All right. And then when after he took my phone, he said, "You're going to have mess with me today and tried to run my P me." So I got off the couch as fast as I could and bolted for the door. And that's why I leave my car keys in my car. And I started screaming and I kicked. I don't think I made contact with him. I might have. I don't know. And then I got up and bolted for the door and I said, "I'm leaving." >> So after he tried taking your bolted out of the door, got in your car and took off. And as I was taking off is when he grabbed my phone and at my car and never made contact with the car, but and there was no way in hell I was going to stop and grab my phone. >> I was just taking off. I hit my garbage can and everything. Um, she looked at my location. He's walking outside the house >> and she drove straight to me and then we came here >> and you do not believe it hit your car. >> I No, I know I hit the garbage can, but it >> Okay, so it did not. And this is not the first time Scott's been with you. >> No, I'm just kidding. There's a hole in my wall from him taking my phone last week and throwing it at the wall because I said I was going to call the cops. >> Okay, I'm just going to open this uh domestic incident report real quick. There's just some questions I got to read you. Uh you will get a copy of this before my shift ends today around 6 p.m. Scott ever to threaten to you or your children or choked you? >> Yes. >> Is the suspect of uh capable of killing you or your children? Yeah. >> Violent and constantly jealous of you. My daughter was completely out my son who's at school right now, thank God, wakes up having nightmares about and last time I called they said, you know, like everything would be taken care of and then he was sent right back to my house the next day with a refrain from. I cannot have him at my house anymore. >> You two live together then? >> Yeah. >> You ever had a history of uh violence against police officers? He was, as far as I know, the term he brags about is he was a red flag in the system for throwing officers and things like that. >> I'm just going to add one part that at no point did you want him to do this. >> No, absolutely not. And I've stated in those text messages that I do not feel comfortable with him. And I said that over and over again. And he said, "How do you know if you're comfortable or not? Because you won't in my bed and me." >> And she came to you for help. >> Came to me. Yeah. I had no idea where I was going. >> What's your first name? >> Brianna. B R I E N M N A. >> Everything read true. Nothing you want to add or change. >> Yeah. >> Okay. I am going to enable uh this form to be edited in any way, shape, or form. And on the solid black line, I'm going to have you sign your name. And he should still be home. Correct. >> Officers arrive at the home.
