I think what you meant to is: it sounds like she’s getting paid off. I don’t think there’s any argument that those marks appeared on her by accident.
The bite marks, I am at a loss. But if he had to restrain her because she was hitting him, then certainly bruising can happen. Lots of adrenaline on both sides.
Some folks (general statement, not meaning you) don’t or can’t believe that women can be the aggressor and can be violent.
In my 20 years of doing defense work and family court, I can tell that they can be both, and (again, generalities) are very good at manipulating others and the system by playing victim.
IDK what happened here, but none of it was good.
When there are true emotions involved, there can be a bit of buyer’s remorse when the reality hits.
One incident should not define either person. The criminal justice system should be about rehabilitation first, then punishment (injury to the victims obviously tilts that balance.)
This is a case where the goal should be, what happened, and what can these people do to try to be sure it never happens again.
I would think counseling and mutual protective orders against assault etc. would be where to begin.
