Autumn and I have an abusive relationship.
Physically, emotionally, and mentally.
Autumn is crazy.
Autumn and I met a year and a half ago.
One day, I was on social media scrolling,
and I was like, "Oh, who is this baddie?"
Baddie means that she's cute.
I was like, "Hey, you should come hang out with me."
She was like, "Oh, I would love to."
I stay with Autumn because she's my homie.
For two, I kinda like crazy girls.
When Autumn and I fight, the fights get outta hand.
I choked Autumn probably around six times
throughout our relationship.
The first time I choked Autumn, I was at her house,
she was screaming at me, and I choked her.
And I picked her up, I took her to her room,
and I slammed her on her bed.
I ended up in jail for aggravated domestic assault.
I've never raped Autumn.
The night of the sexual assault, we had sex.
After that, she was like,
"Let me call my dad."
I grabbed her wrist and I was pushing
on her head and everything, so I was like,
"I don't want you calling your dad."
This is definitely not the greatest way
for me to meet your father.
(laughs)
You think I care?
I don't care anymore.
On the night of the incident,
when Autumn keyed my car, she went through my phone,
saw some messages that she didn't like,
kicked me out, took my money.
When I left, I took her phone.
She followed me and she was...
I'm sick of this.
And she keyed my car.
She has anger issues.
This is the order of protection.
This order of protection came about
'cause me and Autumn cannot stay away from each other.
Three days ago, we was having sex in my vehicle.
It was good sex.
She blames me for everything.
She blames me for all of her problems.
I spend more time with her than I do
any other person on this earth.
After you've built that trust
and you really wanna try and make things work.
And hopefully everything at the end will get better.
Sometimes I'm just like, maybe not.
Maybe I should just slide.
Okay, now you've been listening
to everything so far, correct?
Yes, sir.
But now, she can't listen to anything you're saying
because it's just the way the protection order works.
So, you've been hearing what she said,
but she can't listen to what you say.
Yes, sir.
Now, ya'll have met.
Yes, sir.
How do you feel about
what he was just saying on his
tape piece about saying,
yeah, I've choked her about six times,
thrown her against the wall, the bed, whatever.
We're talking about your daughter.
You know what I think that I and everybody else
that's watching this right now probably also thinks,
but I don't wanna speak for them.
I'll speak for myself 'cause I'm a grown man.
By the way, men don't hit women.
You understand that?
(audience applauds)
If men don't...
I'm gonna be friendly.
If men don't...
I'm gonna be respectful to you.
So, you let me finish.
Yes sir, yes sir.
And then I'll give you your opportunity.
I think you've had more than a fair turn
at my family, so you just be patient.
Why do you think that it's okay
for you to hit my daughter or any other woman?
Why do you think it's okay
for you to hit your daughter, sir?
Answer my question.
Why do you think it's okay
for you to hit your daughter, sir?
My daughter's already come out here
and said that that has never happened.
I understand that; however, your daughter
is also very afraid of you.
Right, so you can't answer the question.
So you didn't drag her out the house by her hair?
No, I did not.
Okay, let me ask you something.
Yes, sir.
Let me ask you something.
Let's assume, hypothetically, that that's correct.
Yes.
And I'm saying that hypothetically.
I'm not agreeing with that.
Correct.
What the hell does that have to do with you doing it?
You think because someone else has violated her,
at some point in the past,
that that gives you license to do so?
No, sir.
I just believe that...
What the hell are you saying?
I believe that the way he's coming at me,
he's saying, "Who does that?"
However, he does the exact same thing.
Well, what's that got to do with what you do.
You're a man.
Own what you're doing.
It has nothing to do with what I'm doing.
I take full responsibility for my...
Well, then take responsibility for it
and don't point the finger at him.
He should take full responsibility for it.
If you're putting your hands on a woman,
that's a cowardly thing to do.
Yes, sir.
What are you doing?
Yes, sir.
