A video surfaced on November 17 showing what appears to be Stacy abusing the mother of his child, while the 5-month-old sits on the couch nearby.
The video shows his ex-girlfriend, Kristin Evans, yelling and begging for Stacy to stop as she is seen being hit in the head and thrown into a TV set that falls on her.
TMZ reported the woman filed a restraining order against Stacy, who she claims beat her in front of their son, according to court documents obtained by TMZ.
“He punched me several times in the head! I begged him to stop because the baby was on the couch just a few feet from where he punched me,” she said in the restraining order application.
“I fear for my life and my children’s lives.”
The woman claims the abuse took place on November 13, and the video footage was taken from a security camera in the room.
Evans was reportedly treated for bruises, bumps, and a cut to her head after the alleged confrontation.
