- This video contains graphic images
of an alleged domestic assault. Viewer discretion is advised.
In downtown Muskegon this summer, office workers
saw a couple fighting through a window in a nearby apartment.
One got her cell phone out and started recording.
It was a judicial candidate and his girlfriend
arguing for about a half hour before things got violent.
The man is seen grabbing the woman
and then pulling out his belt, striking
it seven times while the woman appeared to recoil.
The man was charged the next day.
He claims he was hitting a chair not his girlfriend.
The prosecutor says it makes no difference.
The video shows domestic violence.
