Canberra's Curtis Scott has opened up on his arrest, saying the last few weeks have been the toughest of his life

Scott is accused of assaulting a female police officer and a male senior constable before being tasered and arrested following Australia Day celebrations.

The 22-year-old has pleaded not guilty, and says he tries his best to be a good person.

He's told News Corp he can't take back what he's done, but knows he shouldn't have put himself in that position.
