to throw her down stairs and slash her face

Melo is accused of choking and hitting her in front of their newborn daughter before

The woman whose boyfriend forced her to walk the streets of New York City completely naked is breaking her silence following his arrest.

The 22-year-old woman, whose identity is not being revealed, claims that Jason Melo, 24, choked and punched her in front of their two-month-old daughter before making her strip off all her clothing and walk around their block.

She also claims Melo told her that if she did not do as he asked he would throw her down the stairs and slash her face.

Her claims were revealed as Melo appeared in Manhattan Criminal Court on Thursday. He was charged with assault in the third degree, menacing in the second degree, and endangering the welfare of a child

In a series of ten Instagram videos posted yesterday, Melo, speaking in Spanish, appears to confess to the crime before begging for forgiveness, saying:'I was wrong to do what I did, sending her out naked, I apologize. If I could turn back time I wouldn't do it.'

He then adds in another video; 'Please forgive me, I want you all to know that I am not as bad as you think.'

'I was so scared of him, I didn't know what to do, I couldn't even think,' the woman said in an interview with Univision.

'He started threatening me, he threatened to slash my face.'

Please forgive me, I want you all to know that I am not as bad as you think. I just want to tell you all that I feel bad, as a man. You don't know what was going through my mind Jason Melo via Instagram

She said that since the incident occurred she has been hiding out in her apartment afraid while she takes care of her newborn daughter.

The woman also provided photos of previous abuse she claims to have suffered at the hands of Melo, and can be seen in one photo with redness, brushing and scratching on her face.

And despite Melo's repeated apologies, just 24 hours before he expressed how sorry he was he had posted another video in which a man mocks the woman's cruel punishment by imitating her walking around naked.

In other videos posted at the top of his page, Melo said after the incident: 'I was wrong to do what I did, sending her out naked, I apologize. If I could turn back time I wouldn't do it.

'Please forgive me, I want you all to know that I am not as bad as you think. I just want to tell you all that I feel bad, as a man. You don't know what was going through my mind.

'I came from a woman, I have a daughter, and I have two sisters. But look what you pushed me to do. I am sorry for everything.

'This the last video I will make, I don't want any interviews, I don't want anything.'

In a written comment below the final video, he writes: 'Last thing from me, just that I feel so bad about this cruelty that it's opened my eyes to a person I loved blindly.

In a post alongside apology videos (pictured) he released, Melo writes: 'I hope my family is OK, I have a world ahead of me with goals to achieve, I won't do anything else to affect my life, I apologize to ALL the mothers'

In the video a man, believed to be Melo, can be heard shouting at his girlfriend in Spanish calling her a 'w****' and a 'b****' while accusing her of texting other men

On his Instagram page, Melo is pictured drinking champagne, in expensive restaurants and smoking cigars. At the top of his page, he writes: 'How Good It Feel Knowing That I Will Be Millionaire And Successful Forever'

Melo, who lives in Harlem but is believed to be from the Dominican Republic, describes himself alternately as a 'entrepreneur' and a 'comedian' on social media.

At the top of his Instagram page, Melo writes: 'How Good It Feel Knowing That I Will Be Millionaire And Successful Forever.'

His page is then littered with pictures of him posing in suits, alongside motivational posters, including one that reads: 'Live in such a way that if someone spoke badly of you no one would believe it.'

Other images show him drinking champagne, smoking cigars, and dining out at fancy restaurants.

In the original footage, a man believed to be Melo shouts in Spanish: 'Take off your towel! Co-operate b***h. Show what you are, so pretty and so great. She's a tart. Let's go. Let's go. Say hi to the camera and say why you're doing this.

'Take off your towel and pay the price for the shame I feel after telling you how pretty you were and that I wanted to start a family with you, but it the meantime you were talking to seven other men.'

The woman retorts: 'But not to have sex with them.'

This only serves to anger him further and he scoffs: 'Oh wow, not to have sex! But conversations about kissing, with "love", "babe" and the pictures.'

As she continued to walk away from him, he said: 'Take off your towel. You're going to pay the price like a w***e'. Since you're a w***e, pose like a w***e. Damn w***e'

'Now the guys you're talking to will see if you're worth it, talking to seven men while I was with you.'

He then ripped the towel from her, leaving her completely naked in the street, apart from a pair of boots. As she tried to hide between parked cars, he continued to hurl insults at her.

She then tried to cover her modesty with the protective sheet from a motorbike.

As she stands with the sheet wrapped round her, he says: 'Now, like that, yes. That's what you're worth. Do you really think I'm going to stay with you while you're sending and receiving naked pictures, you damn b***h?'
