Former NFL player Zac Stacy has been arrested at Orlando International Airport after he allegedly assaulted his ex-girlfriend, Kristin Evans. The assault was recorded on camera in the house.
In the video, obtained by TMZ Sports, it shows Stacy Evans being treated violently in front of their five-month-old boy. Stacy threw Evans off the couch onto the floor and against her television.
She does not fight back at all and just lies on a bundle on the ground.
At one point she says “please”. Before walking out the door, he picks her up again and throws her hard on the ground, on top of the baby’s walking ring.
You can hear the baby crying in the background.
According to a protection order submitted on Monday, Evans says Stacy came to her house over the weekend to visit the baby. He acted violently and jealous. “He hit me against my head several times. I begged him to stop, because our baby was on the couch, a few meters away from where he punched me,” she wrote in her application.
She also wrote that Stacy told the baby “I love you”, before he left her house.
“I fear for my own and my children’s lives.”
The video elicited wide-ranging comments from his former teammates, who strongly condemned the incident. Chris Long, a former teammate, said it’s crazy to think you’re playing sports with someone for so long and you do not even know who they are.
Stacy appeared in court Friday and was ordered to hand over his passport. He also had to pay bail of $ 10 150 (R159 000). He may have no contact with Evans and any firearms in his possession must be handed over. He may only stay in his house until his next appearance.
If convicted on the charges against him, he could face up to 15 years in prison. Sources: The Mirror, The Hill, TMZ Follow FiND iT on Facebook here and read more articles here.
