Florida Man Tells Police He Defecated During Domestic Battery Incident
Alachua Florida man Kiva Swander-Kirby, 30, was arrested on Wednesday and charged with committing domestic battery by strangulation against his girlfriend.
The arrest report states, “[Swander-Kirby] stated he wanted an open conversation where he was free to discuss negative things. The victim asked when [Swander-Kirby] would return to her to continue the conversation. Swander-Kirby told her he was tired and wanted to go to sleep.”
This escalated to a screaming match where a naked Swander-Kirby defecated in the middle of the floor. The victim saw his mental instability and screamed for help.
Swander-Kirby reportedly put his hand over the victim’s mouth and plugged her nose to stop her from screaming.
It isn’t clear if Swander-Kirby was naked from the start of the incident or took his clothes off during the argument.
Alachua County Sheriff's Office (ACSO) Deputy Christopher Dasher said that while he was investigating, Swander-Kirby “gave a very vague version of events but did admit to defecating on the floor.”
Swander-Kirby refused to answer questions after his arrest.
Swander-Kirby's bond is set at $40,000.
