Police Report Type- Domestic Violence 4/18/09 2056 Saturday (Continued)

Statement of victim 1- Jacqueline:
V-1 Jacqueline explained that suspect B. is her live-in boyfriend of approximately 3 years.  Today, they had come into town from Rocklin to attend a family party.  They had rented a room at the Holiday Inn to stay for the night.  Tonight they were all having dinner at the Holiday Inn.  At some point S1 B. returned to the room without the victim. V1 Jacqueline eventually realized that she had misplaced her key, so she called S1 B. at the room and requested he come meet her so he could let her in. V1 Jacqueline told me that S1 B. seemed irritated by the fact she had lost her key.  He did leave the room to come meet her.  He voiced his displeasure with her for losing the key, but nothing out of the ordinary occurred at that time.  Then then walked towards their building together.  The victim's 16 yr old niece was with them at that time too.  When they reached the entrance to the building, S1 opened the door, turned and unexpectedly started striking the victim with his fist.  V1 explained that she was shocked by this because it was completely unprovoked.  He kept hitting her and hitting hr.  V1 Jacqueline told me she shielded her face with her hands while he continued to strike her. S1 B also dragged the victim by her hair down the hallway to outside their room.  Along the way, he would stop and begin punching her again. V1 Jacqueline said the assault felt like it lasted "fifteen minutes."  As a result of the attack, she was frightened and scared of the suspect.  She complained of head, neck, back, and arm/hand pain.  She definitely wanted to press charges on S1 B. V1 Jacqueline also requested an EPRO...(this was an emergency order).

Statement of RP/Witness (3)

Injuries: V1 Jacqueline sustained bruising and minor scratches to her arms and hands.  She also had noticeable swelling to the left side of her face, near her temple.  She complained of head, neck, back, arm/hand pain.  She was transported to RMC for treatment.  At the time I left the hospital the was still strapped to a backboard and preparing to be x-rayed.  Due to the victim's limited mobility (because of the backboard) I was unable to thoroughly photograph all her injuries.  I recommended she have photos taken of herself when she returned home and to save the photos as evidence.
S1 B.: sustained a minor scratch to the right side of his face, near his ear.

Physical evidence: recorded  V1 statement into the database. 35 digital photographs showing the victim and the suspects injuries.

Narrative continued: While I was at the hospital with the victim, Sergeant and other officers were able to locate the suspect and safely take him into custody.  Refer to their supplemental reports for further details.  An EPRO was requested and granted.  I provided the victim with a copy of the EPRO and personally served S1 B. at AIB.  I also provided the victim with a Domestic Violence Report Receipt.   Officer B. transported S1 B. to Santa Clara County Jail.
