According to news reports top Cutler Bay police officer is accused of assaulting his wife during a domestic dispute at their residence early Saturday morning. Major Richard Pichardo, 43, was arrested Monday at his home... Pichardo's wife, Martha, told Miami-Dade police the couple was arguing in their vehicle about domestic issues. The altercation escalated when they arrived home and she refused to give Pichardo his keys, claiming he was too drunk to drive... Pichardo allegedly grabbed his wife by her arms and slammed her onto the mattress, causing her to fall off the bed onto the bedroom floor... Pichardo then grabbed her by the arms and placed her onto the bed, pushing her against the headboard and placing his forehead on hers while applying pressure.

ReplyDeleteI've been here before. I'll tell you what happened.
DeleteYour bumbling DV and IA people got there.
They told the wife she would lose her retirement checks from him and get no support
They said they would make sure it didn't happen again
Then when it happens again they'll tell everyone that she is a chronic complainer and what a wonderful guy he is.
If only Loftus had been able to stay longer and clean this stuff up.
yeh of course she recanted - he fled to the ex-wife's house and then went back to wife. but yet now he's on administrative leave for yet another domestic violence incident with his ex-wife. seems his roid rage is getting the best of him.
