A 19-year-old woman is charged with felony third-degree domestic assault after a Tuesday night fight in Macon, according to Macon County court records.
Destiny R. Winn, of Neosho, is also charged with misdemeanor property damage.
The complaint alleges Winn caused physical pain to a man she lived with by biting him, and damaged his computer by throwing it outside.
According to the probable cause statement by Macon Police Sgt. Mercedes Deskin, Deskin was sent to a Macon residence for a domestic assault and found a man with bite marks and scratches. The statement says the bites, on his left wrist and left calf, were deep enough to show teeth marks and blood. He also had scratches on his neck and face.
The man told Deskin that Winn, his girlfriend, was angry and did not trust him about hidden applications on his phone. He said Winn pulled him out of a vehicle, causing him to fall, then got on top of him and bit, hit, and scratched him.
The man told Deskin he struck Winn a few times while trying to get her off him. He said Winn also threw his belongings outside, including the computer.
The statement says Winn could be heard inside the residence but did not answer when Deskin knocked. She later came outside and told Deskin she knew she was there to arrest her.
After being read her Miranda rights, Winn told Deskin she pulled the man out of the car and bit him three times, according to the statement. She said she did it out of anger and "knows she’s in the wrong," and that she started throwing his belongings outside.
Winn told Deskin the man punched her in the back and head. The statement says no marks, scratches, or bumps were found on her. She was taken to the Macon County Jail on a 24-hour hold.
The court did not take up bond Thursday because the alleged victim had not received required notice. A bond hearing is set for 9 a.m. Nov. 19. Attorney Dana Weis filed an entry of appearance in the case Friday.
Third-degree domestic assault is a class E felony punishable by one to four years in prison or up to one year in jail, a fine of up to $10,000, or both.
Charges are accusations. All defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
