She fled when she asked him to leave, but he dared her to call police. Now, he faces attempted murder charges after allegedly attacking her with a hammer, leaving her with skull fractures and a brain bleed — injuries so severe she needed an induced coma. Though he admits to the assault and pleaded guilty to a lesser charge, he denies intent to kill and claims his autism contributed to the toxic dynamic. The defense argues his actions were rooted in his neurodivergence, while the victim now speaks of finally feeling safe and free.
