Elissa Ennis, the ex-girlfriend of Reuben Foster, plans to testify Thursday that the 49ers linebacker did not hit her on Feb. 11 and that she initially lied to police, her attorney confirmed Tuesday.
Ennis has since said, through attorney Stephanie Rickard, that the injuries she suffered, including a swollen lip and a ruptured eardrum, came from a prior fight with a woman. A video of that fight has been given to the Santa Clara County District Attorney's office for review.
At preliminary hearing in Foster's case has been set for Thursday at which point the deputy district attorneys will have to decide whether to move forward with the felony domestic violence charges if Ennis is, in essence, working against them.
