EXCLUSIVE DOCUMENTS: Police Report From MTV Teen Mom Arrest

“Debra said to me, "I don’t believe I’m guilty but in the event that the fact finder chooses to believe state's evidence rather than me, I’ll enter an Alford plea,’" Danielson's lawyer Michael J. Winter told RadarOnline.com. An Alford plea is a guilty plea in criminal court where the defendant does not admit the act and asserts innocence.

Winter said Danielson has to complete anger counseling "with a counselor of her choosing until it is decided that she has had adequate treatment."

Danielson believes her daughter should do the same.

"Debra said she feels the anger counseling would make more sense going to her daughter, but agreed to go along with it rather than put her family through any more grief."
