On the tape, Bonsall's girlfriend claims that the former child star "poured whiskey on my face when I was asleep" and threw her on the ground "probably five or six times" when she tried to leave his house. She also claimed that they both had been drinking before she made the call. Police tell TMZ that before the incident, the two had an all-night party with several friends.

According to police, Bonsall claimed that he pushed the woman down in self-defense, after she cut his arm and face with a steak knife. In the arrest report, police say "both people ... suffered minor injuries that did not require medical attention."

The unnamed girlfriend was released without being charged. Bonsall was charged with second-degree assault and false imprisonment.

33. Q: What do you say to a woman with two black eyes?
A: Nothing. You already told her twice!

34. Wow calmest 911 tape I ever heard. Both parties are calm, rational and sound like they are coming down from a night and morning of intoxication. Boy who can sort out who did what to who. Obvious that both need some help. Pretty unbelievable fast response from the police, under 2 mins from the time the call was first answered. I guess they must have been expecting the call!

35. The dude has two piercings in his lip. They are like earrings in his lip not teeth.
The scratches on his face look like she assaulted him also and should have be charged also. This is another female playing the "weak helpless little girl" card to support her claim to innocence after doing her fair share of damage. He deserves his day in front of the judge but so does she.
"He held me down..." but she claims she did nothing to provoke him. I guess that something like cut or scratch his face is nothing for the "weak helpless little girl". Just because someone looks mean and can do damage does not equal committing that act of violence. The evidence will reveal the truth if you look at it all together without selective vision.
Her calm voice on the recording is that of a deliberate person. She is trying to manipulate the police to act on her behalf without hearing him out. The specific terms used many of the words police are taught as red flags to respond with immediate attention This female has pushed the mental buttons of those responding to see her first as the innocent victim and not the manipulative aggressor that she really is. May God have mercy on her for her deceptive ways.
