Her story
She writes, “Pictures were taken of my face the night of the incident because cops stated my lip was ‘bleeding’ when in all reality my lips were chapped and dry … There was no marks on my face.”
Leal admits that she suffers from severe anger issues and insists the whole incident was a misunderstanding that has unfairly villainized an innocent man.
