strangulation of a household member

A 33-year-old Cheyenne man is behind bars after allegedly assaulting his girlfriend and then barricading himself in a bedroom in their apartment.

The woman reportedly told police she had no idea how Denney was still strong enough to keep moving and fighting after losing all of that blood.

The woman also told police at one point, Veal said he would beat her so badly that she would need assistance using the bathroom.

As he was strangling the woman, court documents say, McLain told her that he was going to kill her.

Casper police arrested Sanchez in August on seven counts of aggravated assault, two counts of strangulation of a household member and one count of domestic battery.

The victim had to be taken by ambulance to Wyoming Medical Center following the incident.

Sanchez, at the time a pastor at Living Rock Foursquare church in Casper, often invoked God when he beat the victim, an affidavit of probable cause says.

He remains jailed at the Natrona County Detention Center pending a sentencing hearing.

A witness told police that she saw Jensen dragging the victim by the hair through the alleyway.

During the struggle, Wallace allegedly bit the victim's left shoulder blade.
