Even the doctor who helped me said I should let it go even as he was examining my fractured cheek and swollen jaw. The female \u201cfriend\u201d I was with refused to write a affidavit to help my case(trash humans) I don\u2019t know why I\u2019m telling y\u2019all this but never be quite ever ever<\/p>\n
