Mallory Owens was brutally beaten by her girlfriend's brother on Thanksgiving and now in a bizarre twist, Breaking Celebrity News has learned she says it wasn't a hate crime and is defending his actions.

After being hospitalized with a broken nose, two black eyes, several lacerations and surgery requiring metal plates be put in her face, Mallory left the hospital on Tuesday and went back to her girlfriend, Ally Hawkins', family home where she was beaten just days earlier by Travis Hawkins Jr.

"I'm okay, I'm good," Mallory told WKRG News 5.

"Just a bad, bad night."

Mallory told the news outlet she doesn't remember much from the night she was beaten, but that it had nothing to do with her sexual orientation.

"A lot of things happened between us, but it doesn't make me hate her brother," she said of Travis.

"I don't hate her family at all, or anybody for that matter."

In fact, Travis' sister is speaking out as well claiming there was a reason behind the attack that will be revealed later.
