The Blotter is a lighthearted look at some of the unusual things found in local law enforcement reports.
Deputies responded to a domestic violence call just after 1 p.m. Sunday. The female victim was extremely intoxicated and bleeding from her bruised up face.
She told a deputy that the man who beat her up had done so after she refused him sex.
They had argued alright, the man said, but he hadn’t hit her. She had hidden his car keys so he couldn’t leave and that’s why they argued, but she got her injuries from falling down several times throughout the house.
A neighbor came over during the investigation. She corroborated part of the guy’s story when she said the victim was always falling down drunk. For instance, the day before the neighbor had watched the woman fall face-first into a toilet tank.
The deputies told the man to leave. They were going to forward the case to prosecutors and leave any charging decisions to them.
