According to People, Party of Five actor Jeremy London’s girlfriend called the Palm Springs Police Department on Friday saying he assaulted her after an argument over the custody of their child.  London’s rep, Dominic Friesen, stated, “This is a false allegation and we understand that the police have to follow protocol in issuing and arrest warrant – standard when any woman files a complaint of domestic abuse.   However, no such abuse occurred and these allegations will soon be proven false.”   Further, Friesen said, “Jeremy’s legal counsel is cooperating with authorities and a factual account of the incident is on record.   We anticipate Jeremy to be cleared of any wrongdoing as he continues to enjoy fatherhood and embrace sobriety.”

    Telling someone can help to know if you’re assaulted. At least someone knows about it and can give you advise and in case something bad happens someone can tell the police who could be the suspect.

    I have been assaulted by my ex husband and the government domestic violence agency helped me a lot during the period of trial and charges against him. Now, I am a free woman.
