Nev Reveals He Assaulted A Woman
With all this talk about men punching on women, lets add Catfish star Nev Schulman to the list. He reveals in his new book "In Real Life: Love, Lies and Identity In A Digital Age" that he punched a person who he did not realize was a female back in college because she did not like the fact he was taking pictures.
"I decided to photograph the school’s annual Sleaze Ball, a night of debauchery, drugs, and girls dressed primarily in lingerie. While I was photographing, an individual who didn’t like that I was takingpictures attempted to tackle me and smash my camera on the ground. Since the camera was attached to a strap around my neck, I found myself in a very unpleasant situation, much like a dog with a choke collar. In an effort to free myself, I punched the person and ran off; when I returned minutes later, I discovered that the short, stocky, crew-cut-styled individual that I’d fought with was a woman—a fact I hadn’t been aware of in the heat of the moment.The next thing I knew, I’d been arrested."
the incident led him to be arrested and kick out of college. The woman responded to Vulture.com about the incident and she say she remembers it differently.
“I didn’t tackle him and I certainly didn’t choke him with his camera strap. I tapped his shoulder and he turned and hit me out of nowhere,” she said. “I went down and he held me in a head lock and repeatedly punched me while I tried to get free. The impact broke my glasses and the rest of the night was a blur.”
