From the same article “Reed opened the door to find Guzman sitting with his back to the wall. Reed began beating Guzman in the face with the pool stick. Morgan said Guzman kept saying, “Stop, I’ll leave,” but her dad wouldn’t stop even though Guzman was bleeding, she told police.”

This is the "she said" to match the "he said."

I wonder how big this Guzman is, since it would be a pretty sturdy individual who could take multiple blows to the face from the business end of a pool cue and still be able to kick someone back and barricade a door.

Exactly right. And we each use our own preconceptions to decide which one is correct. Sorry, but a guy who admittedly beats a guy with a pool cue, and then shoots a gun through a closed door, behind which his supposedly precious daughter is standing, has lost the “he said she said” game. JMO.
