Monserrate told poilice that he tripped with a glass of water and it hit her in the face. Authorities feel differently as they have evidence, including surveillance videos, that show much more violence. Monserrate was still sworn into office despite the allegations. The Queens district attorney’s office says he is expected to be arraigned later this week.
