A preliminary hearing is scheduled for February 26th, but her lawyer said they were trying to come to a plea agreement without having a court
appearance. “Debra would like to see it resolved without a lot of courtroom theatrics,” Winter exclusively told RadarOnline.com.
According to the incident report filed with the Council Bluffs Police Department, the two were arguing in the kitchen "over child care issues as well as other problems" when Danielson threw an MTV t-shirt at her daughter which ended up landing near or on her grandchild who subsequently woke up crying. From there, things escalated.
"The victim was yelling at Danielson over the shirt throwing and Danielson grabbed her by the throat. The victim pushed Danielson's hand away from her.
Victim stated the Danielson then hit her along the side of her head and hit her in the mouth," read the police report.
The officer on the scene said he "observed multiple cuts to the right side of the victim's mouth." Photos of Abraham's neck and face were taken at the
scene.
