In an affidavit obtained by The Dallas Morning News, details of the incident have come to light. Miller and his girlfriend have been romantically involved for seven years; his girlfriend is six weeks pregnant. In the incident in question, Miller got angry at his girlfriend and told her to “get out” of the apartment. As the woman collected her belongings and prepared to leave, Miller started getting physical with her, according to the affidavit.

Miller, according to the affidavit, applied pressure on the woman’s neck, grabbed her by the hair, and threw her laptop on the ground and stomped on it. The woman then started to record the incident on a phone. When she told Miller she was calling the police, Miller left the apartment.

Police arrived at the apartment shortly afterward and took note of the woman’s injuries, which included “minor abrasions” on her hand and bruising on her abdomen, left biceps and neck that was “consistent with applied pressure.”

The woman showed the police the phone recording as well as evidence of her pregnancy.
