The victim’s daughter, Nancy Allmon, toldWREGthat her mother was in an abusive relationship with Winda, and that he “had been abusing her and assaulting her” for some time.
“He blacked her eye,” Nancy Allmon told the station. “Her eye was black … She ended up going to the hospital. She had a fractured eye socket.”
It’s unclear whether Winda has already retained an attorney.
