“She choked my trachea out, she ripped my arms open, she ripped my back open and she punched me where I got my tooth pulled,” Aaron claimed on his YouTube channel. “A lot of people were right about certain things but there is a lot of learning lessons in this.” He went on to call her “#FelonyMelanie” on Twitter.
