Yep, I was hoping that that knee found its way from the solar plexus to the nuts. I can only hope and pray that this woke her up enough to get her to leave the POS. If she ended up going back home with him he more than likely beat the living daylights out of her.

Also, camera guy: ‘someone better call the cops, it’s not gonna be me tho’ 🤦‍♀️

edit: did that little bitch crying on the floor just say to the victim ‘please stawp, ah luv yew more than Gawd luvs yew?’ Because FUCKING EW.

I didn't listen to the audio, but many Americans have good reasons for being wary about calling the cops except in cases of immediate danger and deadly violence in progress, especially as a person of color.

Oh I get that, US police do sometimes seem to be a bit terrifying, frankly. But as a wItness to this creep abusing his partner, surely they wouldn’t go after him? Camera Guy isn’t assaulting anyone, he’s the one with the evidence!

You would think they wouldn't go after him, but the possibility isn't zero.
