Police found a Minnesota Army veteran dead last week while responding to a disturbance call, just 11 days after her abusive boyfriend was released from jail on parole.

On July 8, Hopkins police found Danicka Bergeson, 33, dead in an apartment with her boyfriend, 39-year-old Matthew Scott Brenneman, who has been named as a suspect in connection with her death.

"She had a huge smile. Really engaging," Danicka's father, David Bergeson, told KARE 11. "Everything with her was always black or white. She knew exactly what was right and wrong. She never broke the rules. She really had a hard time with that."

Brenneman pleaded guilty to two separate domestic abuse cases in June as part of a parole agreement in which he would not contact Bergeson after his release from jail pending a sentencing hearing scheduled for August.

The 39-year-old pleaded guilty to striking and biting Bergeson in April while intoxicated.

He was released a day after that incident and again attacked Bergeson in May, according to Hennepin County court documents. 

The couple, who were staying together on-and-off, got into an argument, and Bergeson asked Brenneman to leave, police said in a probable cause statement.

"Defendant responded by striking her with his fists several times and biting her. Defendant then proceeded to choke victim by placing his hands around her neck and reported difficulty breathing," the statement reads. "Victim reported being choked for approximately one minute and thirty seconds. While Defendant was choking Victim, Defendant stated he was going to kill her. Victim was in fear that he would act on this threat."

David Bergeson told KARE 11 that his daughter had difficulty with leaving Brenneman and reporting abuse. After the attack in April, police said Bergeson partially blamed herself for the assault because she was intoxicated, according to court documents.

Her father said her family struggled "to find a safe place for her."

Hopkins police are investigating Bergeson's death as a homicide. Brenneman is accused of violating the  terms of his parole.

Bergeson was a graduate of the University of Minnesota, where she studied animal science, and spent time in the U.S. Army as a medic, according to KARE 11.

An Albuquerque drunken driving suspect caught with his fly open and six kids in the back of his pickup truck appears on bodycam video slurring his speech as he tries to talk his way out of the stop – which ultimately led to child rape charges against him for allegedly molesting one of his passengers.

Police pulled over Jeremy Guthrie, 42, last summer as he swerved across the road, "driving like an idiot," as one trooper put it, and then he failed a field sobriety test, bodycam video shows. After his arrest, investigators uncovered shocking allegations involving one of the girls in his vehicle.

The video, recently released to the public, begins with Guthrie fumbling around the driver's seat after a state trooper asks for his license.

The officer shines his flashlight in the back window, revealing a backseat packed with minors, and then returns to the front, where Guthrie still hasn't produced identification.

"There's your wallet right there between your legs," the trooper says.

"Oh, sorry, I was a little bit nervous," Guthrie replies.

"So was I, the way you're driving," the trooper says, before going through a litany of dangerous swerves and turns he had just allegedly witnessed.

At another point, the officer counted off six children in the car and asked Guthrie, "Who are these kids to you?"

"They're just my friends," the driver slurred.

"That's your friend? How old's your friend?" 

"Eighteen?" Guthrie replies.

"That girl's not 18," the trooper scoffs.

When Guthrie got out to face the field sobriety test, his fly was unzipped.

"Why's your buttons down?" the trooper asks.

"Well, I probably just forgot."

Guthrie failed the field sobriety tests, but the DWI charges were only the start of Guthrie's legal troubles, according to New Mexico's Second Judicial District Attorney's Office.

"During that arrest, there were six children in the car, so he was also charged with abuse of a child," the DA's communications director Nancy Laflin told Fox News Digital.

Then, during a follow-up investigation, one of the girls told authorities Guthrie had sexually abused her, according to prosecutors.

"Based on statements from the child and corroborating evidence in the case, police arrested Guthrie," Laflin said. 

Additional charges included 10 counts of criminal sexual penetration of a minor, three counts of criminal sexual contact with a minor, two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor – and one more of false imprisonment.

Officers told the kids to call their parents and to pick them up at the scene as they processed Guthrie.

Guthrie has been held without bond at Bernalillo County's Metropolitan Detention Center in Albuquerque since July 2022, records show. He's due back in court in November.
