So what did Jim do?  He beat up his girlfriend.  Pretty bad.  

Jarvis Beene said his sister was treated at Spectrum Health Blodgett hospital and released, but may have to undergo surgery. He said she suffered a "busted eye" as well as cuts on her arms and injuries to one of her ears.

After the assault, Vaughn drove Cross to her own home, said the victim's sister, who declined to give her name. Her son saw the injuries and called Cross' sister, who said she eventually drove Cross to the hospital.

Nice guy.  Let me guess... she fell down the stairs, right?
