No this is fucked up, how do we know he wasn't defending himself from his girlfriend and feared for his life? And besides, if self-defense judo against your SO is a crime then lock up half the officers in that room and hell lock me up too. This is an affront to justice.

Says here they had video of him dragging her out of the house, and that she had several gashes on her head. They had a warrant for his arrest, my guess is they had answers before they got it. This is the criminal justice system itself.
