Seattle Seahawks newly drafted defensive end Frank Clark has been the subject of intense scrutiny surrounding his past and domestic violence.
The heat won’t be going away anytime sooner after the dash-cam video of his domestic violence arrest from last year was released this morning.
Clark isn’t on the video, but a lot of the new information we learned via transcripts is. Clark identifies himself on the recording and admits that he’s been drinking, but insists that he never hit Diamond Hurt during an argument in a hotel room.
“Like I was saying before you guys pulled up, you can look at the scars on my face,” Clark said in video obtained by the Sandusky Register through a public records request. “You can look at everything on my face. And you can look at everything on her face. I ain’t did (expletive) to her. I ain’t touched the woman. You know what I’m saying? She’s a woman.”
In the police report from that night — Hurt says Clark punched her in the face. She did not want to press charges, but the police arrested Clark based on the physical evidence.
Another woman can be heard giving out details on the tape, and it appears to be Stephanie Burkhardt — the infamous hotel manager — who claims Frank Clark threatened to hit her as well.
