Hope Solo arrested on domestic violence allegations involving sister, nephew

Hope Solo, the goalkeeper on the U.S. women’s soccer team, was arrested for allegedly assaulting two of her relatives after a dispute broke out early Saturday morning during a party at her suburban Seattle home.

Police answered a 911 call from the Kirkland, Wash., home Solo shares with her husband Jerramy Stevens and arrested her for allegedly striking her sister and teenage nephew. Solo, according to police, appeared “intoxicated and upset” and her nephew, 17, and adult sister had visible injuries. “There was a big party going on at her house. It was an out-of-control situation,” Kirkland police Lt. Mike Murray told the Seattle Times. Solo, 32, was being held without bail in South King County Jail on two charges of domestic violence assault in the fourth degree. Listed under her married name, Hope Amelia Stevens, she is to appear Monday in Kirkland Municipal Court.

Solo married Stevens, a former NFL player for the Seattle Seahawks and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, in November 2012, shortly after he was arrested on suspicion of assaulting Solo, but charges were never brought because there was insufficient evidence.

Reading this account I will wager a guess that Hope Solo has a major "anger management" problem:

An officer responded to a 911 call late Friday night that a female was "going crazy and hitting people." According to the statements by the nephew in the report, Solo arrived at her half-sister's house upset that Stevens had refused to take her to the airport for a flight.

Also according to the report, Solo was under the influence of a considerable amount of wine and became upset with her nephew when she thought he spoke ill of her. The conversation settled down momentarily, and they started talking about the nephew's interest in acting. He said that to be a good actor, you needed an "athletic state of mind." Solo responded that he would never be athletic because, according to the report, he was "too fat and overweight and crazy to ever be an athlete." The nephew responded by telling Solo to get her "c--t face" out of the house.

One thing led to another, and, after the nephew accused Solo's family and father as being the crazy ones, she allegedly charged and punched him. According to the report, they grappled and Solo wound up punching her nephew and half-sister several times. Attempting to stop Solo from assaulting his mother, the report states, the nephew broke a broom over Solo's head. When that didn't stop her, he grabbed a broken BB gun from somewhere, pointed it at Solo and told her to leave.

When the police arrived, they found the nephew bleeding from one ear and his jaw and nose reddened, and Solo's half-sister's left cheek was swelling. The officer reported that he saw no injuries to Solo and that she refused to allow him to inspect her head for injuries. She insisted she did not assault anyone.

In addition (I'll wager another guess) Solo and her husband are wealthy enough to have hired a limo to take her to the airport.
