In November 2014, Jeremy Renner divorced Sonni Pacheco after ten months of marriage. At the time, Pacheco said the reason for the split was the character mismatch. Now, she accuses Renner of trying to kill her.
In court documents obtained by TMZ, Pacheco said that last November, Renner was in a club, drinking cocaine and telling someone "he could no longer deal with it and that he just wanted to get it off the ground." She also said that a nanny heard Renner say that she would go to her house to kill her and then kill herself because Ava "had better not have any parents than have Sonny as a mother. Pacheco wants full custody of their 6-year-old daughter, Ava.
The documents also describe an incident where Renner fired a gun into his mouth, threatened to kill himself and then shot to the ceiling while Ava was sleeping in her room. moreover, Pacheco accuses Renner of verbal and emotional abuse and that he was intoxicated while taking care of the girl. In one of the incidents described, Renner had left cocaine on the counter, where he could easily be seized by Ava.
During the divorce, Pacheco asked Renner to return the stolen passport, birth certificate and Social Security card.
Over the years, a series of incidents and allegations have been made public that shed light on their problematic relationship. According to The Wrap, a close friend of Renner's who lived with them for some time, said Pacheco, a Canadian, married the actor simply to obtain a residence permit.
A Renner representative told E! Neve: ?The well-being of his daughter Ava has been and is Jeremy's priority. These are jobs for the court. It is important to note the dramatizations in Sonni's statements with a single purpose in mind. ?
The next hearing is set for November 7.
