Last month, McKenna accused Sails of becoming enraged and repeatedly slapping her, according to charging documents.
The documents allege Sails "struck the complainant's left arm and torso area with a closed fist, causing pain and bodily injury."
But Sails wasn't finished.
Charging documents say Sails put his hands around McKenna's neck, choking her while he repeatedly slammed the back of her head against the concrete after she tried to escape from the couple's apartment.
