Doesn't this video basically prove Ant's innocence?

Wheres the video where she fakes getting strangled and having her hand stomped on?

I don't know, but a girl who fakes being slapped in the face is insane and not to be trusted. So if she really did fake the slap in the face then the rest of her argument would need to hold up really well.

Like the part where she grabs her face and screams "Ow"? You must have the director's cut.

Like the part where she grabs her face and screams "Ow"

That happens neither in the video above, nor the longer one, so idk wtf you're talking about.

Holy shit, he was being sarcastic.

You are dumb as fuck.

She doesn't scream ow and she doesn't grab her face

BUT SHE FAKED A SLAP!11

HOW CAN SHE SLAP????

It's possible.. I personally don't think so. I'm with the "he was grabbing for the phone" crowd.

I just don't get how he sounds so far away compared to her.

The entire 'far away" thing is way overblown and dumb, anyhow. It'd only take a second to get across from where he is, to where she is. It's not like he's having to walk through the Sahara to reach her (tsss tsss).

He either grabbed for it or he started coming towards her to grab it and she took off to keep distance from him, which would also explain the moving phone.

Care explaining why? Or do you want to continue calling me a retard with nothing to back up your claims?

Because you are really stupid.

Nice job, Zapruder.

Quick, someone call that judge and let him know!

Thanks, I'm on it.

Once again, she doesn't fucking fake a slap. Right before that he asks where her camera is to try and cover why he's trying to grab her phone away and end the periscope.

Camera? I didn't hear camera at all there. Maybe he said "where's your hand" or something.

edit: really? who the fuck thinks she says "camera" there?

Has anyone actually transcribed this yet?

This is what I hear:

Dani: I'm taping right now

Ant: DONT! (sternly warning)

Dani: Hi, I'm in Long Island, I got my hand broken, I'm waiting for the police to come.. but

Ant: Where's your hand? (kind of giggling)

Dani: My..

KAPOWEE!!!!!!

Dani: Oh my God, don't hit me again (pissed)

Ant: I'm not hitting you (somewhat sarcastic / playing dumb)

Dani: Stay away from me

Ant: (weird giggle)

Ant: [sounds of strangling a girl]
Dani: [choking and struggling]
[Theme from "Seinfeld"]

Lmao

That's what I heard.

Here. Although apparently she said threaten, not frighten.

Source: literal me.

No.

Oh ok, yeah you're right, it makes more sense now.

It does sound like he is further away. That's why I initially though that maybe Ant threw something at her while also maybe taking a step towards her.

Maybe it just sounds like he is further away because the microphone is pointed away from him and not capturing his voice directly. If this is the case I think it was him grabbing her arm.

The whole thing is very bizarre and everything is a little off but to me it does not look like she slapped herself. She doesn't stop to think about it even for a moment. It happens in a middle of a sentence. And it is live. It would be very strange and extremely risky behavior trying to fake that shit.

Maybe.

She does stop and think for a second.

And it is live. It would be very strange and extremely risky behavior trying to fake that shit.

She only has one reason to be around Ant in the first place: money. This is her ticket to a pile of cash. And if she fails and everyone finds out she faked the slap? Nothing happens to her. Maybe probation or something, but women don't go to jail for false rape/domestic violence accusations. What does she really have to lose here? Nothing.

They had broken each other's phones, Anthony had pulled the landline out of the wall, and this was probably an iPad recording.

I love you Johnny Cakes

No. It's only 1 minute of a periscope. There's no telling what happened in the other ~8 hours of so after the police arrived. That sad, the video doesn't show any hitting -- whether from herself, or from Anthony. It's too much of a blur. It could be just from having her hand pulled back.

That's not even including her apparent, on record, injured hand and broken rib(s). Plus whatever happened before this was taken.

There's no telling what happened in the other ~8 hours of so after the police arrived

True, but my thought was this: assuming she faked being slapped in the face, nothing else she says can be taken seriously. You have to assume dishonesty from her after you confirm she fake slaps herself in the face.

But apparently people don't think she faked it. I still do though.

Her face went straight sideways, which I believe most likely resulted from something hitting across her face.

On the contrary, her face going sideways could have been a flinch reaction to him reaching for the camera, but I think that's unlikely. Why would her flinch reaction be a sideways facial movement? It would most likely be a 'backing up quickly' reaction instead.

So assuming something hit across her face and made the slap sound, what are the chances it's Anthony's hand? I guess it's possible, but what are the chances he would slapped her and completely stayed out of frame?

Also, just a second after the 'slap', he sounds like he's 10 feet away from her. Other people think maybe he sounds far away because the mic is front-facing. I guess that's possible too.

Also, looking at the vid in slo-mo, even though there's blur, it looks like an arm or something moving straight across the frame along with her facial flinch reaction.

Also, listen to that slap sound. Does that sound like anything other than skin being slapped? I don't think so. Maybe he was reaching for the camera and hit her arm, but that seems unlikely to me.

Tsss...dats a lot of assumptin or sumptin

You're not wrong.

I think whatever happened in the Periscope vid is of secondary importance. If her rib is actually broken, then Ant is fucked unless he's rich and important enough to get the charges dropped.

It looks to me like Ants bloated hamburger-helper hand tries to slap the phone out of her hand. And why does he cut himself off at the beginning of the video?

hamburger helper hand, LOL THIS GUY IS GOOD

What you didn't like it?

Ok, how is she holding the phone. She waves her right hand real quick at the beginning and then it's her left had that is "broken"

Other thing I thought of is what if Ant grabbed her hand and made her slap herself. The whole "where's your hand" question and then the way he says "I'm not hitting you" is just weird.

This fucking video is fucking conflicting in both directions.

Now I'm starting to think they're both in on it.

When she accuses him of breaking her hand, he says back to her that it's not broken. Note how he says that instead of ever denying messing with her hand in the first place. The whole video looks terrible on Anthony.

I agree. He never denies there was a physical altercation that resulted in her injuries. He only says her hand is not broken and he denies he was attempting to hit her when he tried to snatch the recording device out of her hand.

Yes, my assumption based on it was that he accidentally caused some injury to her and she played it off as domestic violence. I could be wrong and I am only guessing obviously but that's what I take away from the way he responded.

They were both obviously intoxicated and she's live broadcasted many of their drunken nights/mornings together. So has he. They both mix benzos and booze and who knows what else, so this was bound to happen. That's why so many people watched their Periscopes. They knew it was a powder keg.

*edit: spelling

Agreed

Why would he deny it to her? Whether he did it or not, she knows.

She says her hand's broken. He doubts it is, for whatever reason: he didn't do anything to her hand, didn't do anything he thinks would break it, thinks she's putting on a show for the phone, etc.

It's the one not-"terrible" thing in a video packed with weird shithead behavior.

Probably just because he knows it's being recorded / broadcast.

Probably because the crack whore knows it is being recorded/broadcast.

Her hand is clearly not broken.

Let's get Dr Steve on the Phone.

I don't need to have gone to a shit medical school to know if some bitch can handle her phone and flex her fingers the fucking phone ain't broken.

You're probably the most angry poster on here. Why so angry?

Fuck off.

And a potty mouth.

Go troll someone else with your psychology degree.

As well as sarcastic.

The whole video looks terrible on Anthony.

No it doesn't.

When she accuses him of breaking her hand, he says back to her that it's not broken. Note how he says that instead of ever denying messing with her hand in the first place.

True, a better response would have been to deny breaking it. But that alone isn't evidence that he injured it.

No, that's her left hand the entire time. She shows her palm to the camera when waving and the back of her hand when saying it's broken. You can see the ring when she shows the back of her hand.

I guess it's possible that Ant was off to the side of the camera and took her left hand and threw it towards her face, but there's no reason to believe he did that, and it also would have been a tremendous feat to do that and stay completely out of frame.

Yeah now that I looked at it again it is the "broken" hand the whole time.

I was saying in another thread that Ant sounds too far away to have hit her and then all of the sudden he's far away again.

He is definitely towards her right since she looks and talks in that direction towards him.

Maybe he tried to swipe the phone out of her hand with her "broken" hand or something. She also looks like she knows there's going to be an impact because she turns away right before it happens.

Anthony was trying to snatch the recording device out of her hand, and she says don't hit me again. According to both of their police statements, they broke each other's phones, and police saw the landline phone ripped out of the wall which corroborates Dani's statement that he wouldn't let her call the cops.

Now look at /u/BengalFreddie comments. She is the psycho "catshit" ex who Anthony had arrested. She says Dani is leaving Anthony's office at the beginning of the recording. That's probably where she grabbed the iPad and recorded live on Periscope after all phones were useless.

Do you have a link to the police statements? I can't find them.

I don't think that's an iPad. The aspect ratio would be different (4:3). Also, unless it was an iPad mini, that shit is awkward to hold in portrait mode, especially for someone as brittle looking as her.

Maybe it's after she broke his phone and before he broke hers?

For the SJWs that keep downvoting my replies in this thread without bothering to respond back: I have no idea what happened and if Ant did abuse her, he's an asshole and deserves any prison time he gets. However, at this point all we have is her side of the story since Ant hasn't talked about it. I know it is a crazy concept but I think waiting to see how this plays out is fair.

if Ant did abuse her, he's an asshole and deserves any prison time he gets.

I agree.

But it seems like everyone has already decided what's happened. Idk if the downvoting is people from this sub or fags from elsewhere.

It's from people with brain cells. I know this is difficult for you to grasp.

It's difficult for me to grasp because you are making things up and saying they're true, which makes me think you have no ability to reason.

That video will be her downfall because the whole thing looks like a bit. Someone who is scared and abused would crack a joke about not showing her boobs to the viewers? I mean besides the slap which I believe was staged, who would joke in that situation?

To be clear, I don't know what happened and neither does anyone here. Ant may have crossed a line or maybe he didn't. But that video only helps him I think.

1) There is no slap, just an attempt to grab her phone and end the scope
2) "You won't be so lucky to see that" is not a comedic attempt
3) Anthony tries both verbally and physically to get her not to broadcast, doesn't deny hurting her hand when accused, and complete changes his behavior the second the turns the camera to him and tries to play the whole thing off to be a comedy thing, failing miserably and only looking like a complete psycho.

The video only shows that he's not the fucking angel he's pleading out to be.

I guess you were there and you know all these things for a fact. I can admit I'm just guessing.

Or I'm not a complete dunce like the idiots who watch it and think it's some kind of fake slap.

Hey hey hey, let's not get into name calling here.

Fuck off.
