The victim, whose name was not released by the VIPD, told police that Scatliffe, the father of her infant son, came to her residence and met a male acquaintance of hers sitting on the porch. The two men had an exchange of words at which point her friend left the residence.

Scatliffe was held without bail under the Domestic Violence law, and was turned over to the Bureau of Corrections pending his advise of right hearing.
