From NY Times:
State Senator Hiram Monserrate pulled his bleeding companion through the lobby of their Queens building so violently last December that she dropped a towel she had pressed to her sliced face, a video played on Tuesday in court showed.
The fleeting and grainy security-camera images — crucial evidence for the prosecution in the senator’s domestic violence trial, and never before made public — show Mr. Monserrate, 42, yanking the distressed woman, Karla Giraldo, 30, as she lunges to ring a neighbor’s bell and tries to grab a banister rail and door frame.
