He was arrested for domestic abuse of a different woman - not his wife. I'm withholding judgement until I know more.

Allegedly the charge was domestic violence. That's a circumscribed group: your spouse, your children, your parents, your siblings, extended family living with you. If you have a visitor at your home and you attack them, that's another kind of assault, not domestic violence.

I want to know who made the allegations.

He was arrested.

He was not alleged to have beaten his wife. So what his wife has to say on the matter is irrelevant. I'd like to hear from the woman whose story the police took seriously enough to use as the basis of an arrest.

I hope it's just Repug ratfucking and he didn't really hit anyone. We'll see.
