Twice in the last 13 years, police were dispatched to the home of mayoral candidate Greg Brockhouse in response to allegations of domestic violence.

Now a city councilman, Brockhouse is running to unseat Mayor Ron Nirenberg in the May 4 election.

Brockhouse was not charged in either incident.

In the most recent case, on Dec. 23, 2009, at around 11:55 p.m., Brockhouse’s wife, Annalisa, called police and alleged that Brockhouse had grabbed her, thrown her to the ground and tried to hit her, according to a police report obtained by the San Antonio Express-News.

Annalisa told police she was arguing with Brockhouse that night at their home on the far West Side because “he had recently lost his job and had been drinking a lot,” the report said. Brockhouse worked at the time as a constituent services manager for then-Councilwoman Mary Alice Cisneros, according to his LinkedIn profile.

Brockhouse “screamed” at Annalisa to leave him alone, the police report said, summarizing her account. When she wouldn’t leave, Brockhouse “grabbed (C) and threw (sic) on the ground and got on top of her,” the report said, identifying Annalisa as C, for complainant.

She told police Brockhouse “was trying to hit her and she kept trying to push him off,” the report said. She said that Brockhouse relented only when their children came into the room and told him to get off her, according to the report.

Brockhouse was not at the house when police arrived. Annalisa had no visible injuries, the report said.

Asked for comment Thursday, Brockhouse said, “I don’t remember that at all. I don’t recall any of that. I’ll have to talk to her about it.”

Annalisa is Brockhouse’s third wife. In a recent campaign flyer supporting his mayoral bid, she praised Brockhouse as an exemplary husband and father: “In times of happiness, and also in times of struggle and life’s challenges, Greg has put his family first and has always been a man of his word.”

The earlier allegation of domestic violence involved Brockhouse’s second wife, Christine Rivera.

Around 10:15 p.m. on April 29, 2006, Rivera called 911, records show.

Brockhouse had moved out of their Northwest Side home and had returned to retrieve some belongings. Rivera and her then-boyfriend, who were out at the time, encountered Brockhouse when they got home.

Rivera told a 911 dispatcher that her estranged husband was causing a disturbance, records show. When police arrived, she alleged that Brockhouse had pushed her. She told officers she was afraid of Brockhouse “and what he might do,” according to a police report.

“It was an aggressive push,” Rivera said in an interview Wednesday. “He had a golf club in his hand. He was yelling at me. I was trying to get into my house. He pushed me, and I hit the side of the house, the side wall closest to the front door.”

Rivera told police that her boyfriend came to her defense and a fight ensued between him and Brockhouse, the police report said.

She told the Express-News that her boyfriend “kicked (Brockhouse’s) butt.”

“His face was bruised,” she said of Brockhouse. “He had two black eyes.”

Brockhouse gave a starkly different account. He said he never pushed Rivera. He told police that her boyfriend sucker-punched him after he had turned to leave.

Brockhouse told officers the boyfriend “got him on the ground and was choking him,” the police report said.

The councilman gave a similar account in an interview with the Express-News on Wednesday.

“There was no pushing her that occurred at all,” he said. “I was battered badly. Be very careful about what you do to victims. I’m telling you, I was the victim in that.”

Brockhouse also called 911 that night — after Rivera had called, according to a police report that listed him as a complainant.

“I was the one who was attacked,” a tearful Brockhouse told the Express-News. “I went home after losing my family. It was my house. It was my home. You’re asking me to relive one of the worst days of my life. My ex-wife had a relationship with someone else, and that’s what ended my marriage.”

Rivera disputed that, claiming Brockhouse’s own infidelity led to their separation.

She also disputed Brockhouse’s assertion that he had gone to the house that night in part to deliver a gift for his son.

“He did not show up to give his son a gift,” Rivera said. “He had a key and went into the garage and was rummaging through stuff. I guess he had his golf clubs, and he had the front door wide open and the garage door wide open, leading me to believe that someone was breaking into the house, that there was a burglary going on.”

According to the police report, Rivera told officers that when she told Brockhouse to leave, he “immediately began berating” her and her boyfriend.

“I started getting angry at that point, obviously,” Brockhouse told the Express-News. “Any man at that point is going to be like, ‘What the heck is going on here?’ It was my house. And this guy was living in my home.”

Speaking to the newspaper on Wednesday, Rivera said, “I’m going to stand by my truth. I need to stop being scared of him.”

Thursday morning, Rivera left a voice mail on a reporter’s phone in an attempt to rescind her comments.

In a subsequent interview, she agreed to keep her comments on the record.

Rivera said Brockhouse had called her Wednesday night in an attempt to silence her.

“He said, ‘Don’t say anything,’” Rivera said.

Brockhouse denied that on Thursday, insisting that a distraught Rivera had called him.

Rivera was born and raised in San Antonio. Remarried, she now lives in Washington, D.C. She is reluctant to come home, she said, because of Brockhouse.

“Especially if that man’s going to be mayor,” she said. “I’m going to have to wait four years to come home.”

Rivera said Brockhouse has “anger management issues.”

Brockhouse, 46, called the 2006 incident a pivotal moment in his life.

“My dad is a Lutheran pastor,” he said. “Two weeks later, I started my conversion to Catholicism because I knew that was the end of the road, and I thought to myself, I can either die here today … I thought I was going to die that night. So I thought to myself, I either let it go, just give it up, or I fix it. Like just end it. That’s how dark it was to me.”

Brockhouse added, “You sit there wondering, and you’re thinking, ‘Has God really forsaken me?’ Like, ‘Am I really that lost?’ Some people say screw it and just give up. But I made a conscious choice... I got in heavily into the Catholic church. I met my wife while converting to Catholicism, my wife today. The Lord put her in my path.”

At the time, Brockhouse was 33.

“There’s biblical importance to that number, too, if you know anything about the Bible,” he said. “Thirty-three years old is when Jesus began his work. Not that I’m Jesus.”
