How did she think she was going to get that out? Ouch!

Just bumping this up for the update. It seems the original story wasn't entirely accurate. It looks like the BF forced it down her throat!

They're not releasing many details yet though.

While the link doesn't specifically state the BF is at fault, by stating that she was a victim of assault, that's the only conclusion I could come up with.

What a loser!! Make her look like a fool when you're responsible!

And the plot thickens..... please stay tuned.

The second explanation makes a heck of a lot more sense.

It is really common for an abuser to shove something down his victim's throat. I have seen stuff like that before at work and it just makes my skin crawl. Imagine how afraid she must have been.

Wow, how sad! Now I feel bad for laughing about it at first.

Here is an update if anyone is interested. I do hope she seeks the assistance of her local domestic violence shelter in leaving this relationship.

Suspect in cell-phone assault case surrenders

By KEVIN HOFFMANN
The Kansas City Star

A 23-year-old Kansas City man accused of forcing a cell phone down the throat of his ex-girlfriend surrendered Wednesday.

Police said Marlon Brando Gill was accompanied by his attorney when he surrendered about 4 p.m. at the Kansas City Police Department downtown.

Jackson County authorities previously had issued a warrant for Gill’s arrest, charging him with felony assault for an incident in Blue Springs involving Melinda Abell, 24, of Blue Springs. The Jackson County prosecutor’s office had asked for a $100,000 bond.

Blue Springs had issued notice of the warrant Tuesday and asked for the public’s help in locating Gill.

According to a court document, Abell told police that Gill forced her from a residence near Southwest 19th Street and U.S. 40 early last Friday, began yelling and demanded to see her cell phone while driving along the highway. He pulled into a parking lot, grabbed her and “forcibly shoved the phone into her mouth where it became lodged in the throat,” the court document alleges

That account differed from Gill’s. He told police Friday morning that the woman had tried to swallow the phone after he demanded that she give it to him.

Abell was hospitalized after the incident, but she had been released Wednesday.

Court records show that on Tuesday, Abell filed a petition for an order of protection against Gill. A court hearing is scheduled for Tuesday. Gill was convicted of misdemeanor battery against Abell in October in Johnson County, according to court documents. He was sentenced to 60 days in jail but the sentence was suspended for 12 months.

I hope the judge gives him the maximum allowed by law. He definitely deserves it!
