(KAIR)--A Leavenworth woman accused of grabbing a victim- neck during an argument over a cell phone has been found guilty.
48-year-old Jessica Blue pled no contest last week in Leavenworth County District Court to individual counts of aggravated domestic battery and violation of a protective order. The court accepted Blue- pleas and found her guilty. Blue's sentencing is scheduled for November 8.
According to court documents cited in a release from the office of Leavenworth County Attorney Todd Thompson, on March 28, 2023, at a home in Leavenworth, Blue argued with an adult relative with whom she shared the home. Blue and her victim disagreed because the victim refused to give Blue her phone. During the argument, Blue grabbed the victim by the victim- sweater and threw her to the ground. Blue then grabbed the victim- neck with both hands and squeezed.
On August 20, 2023, Blue contacted the victim via a video phone call after being served a protection from abuse order prohibiting her from contacting the victim directly or indirectly.
