Responding deputies were unable to substantiate the assault. Mr. McSwiggan, who had no visible injuries, was subsequently arrested after deputies observed him vandalizing a car in the 8900 block of Santa Monica Boulevard. After being booked and photographed, Mr. McSwiggan was placed into a cell by himself at West Hollywood Station. Mr. McSwiggan was then observed injuring himself with the handle and receiver to a payphone inside the cell. Medical personnel were summoned and Mr. McSwiggan was transported to a local hospital for treatment. Mr. McSwiggan’s booking photo was taken prior to deputies seeing Mr. McSwiggan injuring himself. That booking photo is attached.
His Response:
I've been told to say nothing before court tomorrow but staying silent here is killing us. If you're a friend just DM me for the truth.

I have become way cynical as far as minor media celebs pulling stunts.
Using and exploiting real issues to make it all about themselves and get more followers and whatnot.
It's sadly common but the general public is eating all up at face value. They underestimate how conniving those 'entrepreneurs' can be.
Not surprised at all he faked it.
also, lmao @ the advocate going out of their way to tweet the article in reply to his tweet. i admire the petty

I read the post excerpt and decide to share my opinion; whether you like it or not. Nobody asks you to look for my specific comment, neither are you obligated to reply to my words. For the nth time, I am not transphobic, nor homophobic - but think what you want.
