Fmr Arizona Dem candidate accused of storming into ex's home with knife, tape, blames 'misunderstanding'

A former Arizona Democratic congressional candidate was arrested after allegedly forcing entry into an ex-partner's home with a knife and tape, then telling police the confrontation was a "misunderstanding" over a BDSM scene the victim denies ever agreeing to, according to court documents.

Phoenix police responded to a call on July 10 at 6 p.m. from a woman who said her ex-partner, Brianna Westbrook, had come to the door, and that she opened it believing it was her son, according to court documents.
