New Details Emerge in Domestic Violence Case Against NFL's Jonathan Dwyer 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------


 
New details have emerged about the domestic violence case against NFL
player Jonathan Dwyer after his arrest on Wednesday. According to a
police report of the July incident, Dwyer headbutted his wife in the
face after she resisted his sexual advances, fracturing her nose, then
threatened to kill himself after she fled. The next day, he punched his
wife in the face and threw a shoe at their 17-month-old son. Dwyer's
team, the Arizona Cardinals, has barred him from playing but continued
to pay him.
