Zac Stacy said the savage attack on his ex-girlfriend, Kristin Evans, was “staged,” and that she set him up because he didn’t want to be with her and that she was “bitter.”
TMZ Sports obtained video of the former NFL running back’s interview with police after he brutally attacked Evans in her Florida home.
In the video, you can hear Stacy detailing the events leading up to the attack on Nov. 13, claiming that the altercation was “all staged.”
“It’s just a case of just bitterness, man,” Stacy told the police. “That’s why she did this. The whole assault thing, she staged it. She set me up.”
Stacy continued, “The whole thing was staged. All she’s trying to do is get money out of me. She got a reaction out of me.”
Stacy claims that his ex-girlfriend, who’s also the mother of his son, was upset because he didn’t want to be in a relationship with her.
Police said Stacy told them Evans knew he wasn’t in a good mental state after recently getting out of rehab for anxiety and depression. He claimed she used that to elicit “a reaction” out of him.
“She knew I was down, she knew I was going through anxiety and depression,” Stacy said. “She knew I was trying to close this gap that’s between me and my son and she’s just upset that she got caught and she’s upset I’m not taking care of him like she expected. And now she took it this far.”
Stacy added, “This is just a case of [a girl just bitter] that I don’t want to be with her and she’s just trying to destroy my whole reputation ’cause of this s***.”
He then admitted to officers that he knew his actions were “f***ed up.”
“I don’t know what man — how any man could have handled that situation,” Stacy said.
Stacy was booked on charges of felony aggravated battery and felony criminal mischief and is currently out on bond.
Evans responded to Stacy’s claims Monday saying, “I don’t know how you can stage getting your ass beat.”
“This is what abusers do. They will make you seem like you’re the crazy one and that they’re the victim,” she added in a video posted to her Instagram story.
