I\u2019ve never seen him like that. I\u2019ve never seen him fly off the handle like that. I\u2019ve never seen him \u2026 I don\u2019t know why he got so angry. But then he started calling me names, and being very aggressive,\u201d Leon told the station in an interview.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe scared my daughter. She screamed at the top of her lungs, like, scared \u2019cause he was yelling at me,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Leon said Robert Leon then \u201cslapped\u201d her before punching her arm as she told him, \u201cYou know, I can cancel the order. I can order the PS5.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At one point during the fight, Leon said, her husband stepped out of the vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>The couple\u2019s daughter, frightened by the fighting, then asked her mother to leave, Leon told WXMI.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs I was pulling out, he jumped on the hood and he was holding on where the windshield wipers are,\u201d Leon said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI had proceeded to turn, and as I turned he slipped off and fell and hit his head,\u201d she said. \u201cThat\u2019s what caused him to pass away. He had a brain bleed that was inoperable.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When asked why she didn\u2019t stop when her husband leaped onto the car\u2019s hood, Leon said, \u201cI thought about that later. But it happened so quickly, and my daughter was freaking out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe was trying to break the window on the driver\u2019s side door. He was kicking the door. He was freaking out. I was scared,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>If convicted, Leon faces jail time of up to one year along with a penalty of $2,000, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollandsentinel.com\/story\/news\/courts\/2024\/05\/20\/wife-faces-misdemeanor-after-fatal-car-accident-at-holland-wendys\/73768503007\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Holland Sentinel<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople make assumptions and assume they know what happened,\u201d Vinnice told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mlive.com\/news\/grand-rapids\/2024\/04\/people-assume-i-committed-a-crime-after-husband-dies-in-fall-from-her-car-hood.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Grand Rapids Press<\/a> in an article published April 8.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI ask myself, \u2018If only I\u2019d done this, if only I had done that,\u2019 things would be different.
