Jaxson was shocked with a stun gun and was hospitalized also facing criminal charges. It was his girlfriend’s house where he forbade the cops to enter. As the people who live on the same block in LA’s Woodland Hills neighborhood said a young woman’s screams woke them up at about 3 a.m. His girlfriend had yelled,
