Doing his job and arriving at the scene, Deputy Howard learned from the victim that her troubled son had become angry and attacked her. The son claimed that his mother started the altercation.

LILESVILLE — At 12:46 a.m., Deputy Luis Galvan responded to a residence on Forest Rd. following a report of an alcohol induced domestic dispute between mother and son, resulting in the mother desiring the removal of her son from the home. Arriving at the scene, Deputy Galvan found both parties intoxicated. The mother claimed her son was acting out and tearing apart the residence, so she had forced him from the home. Deputy Galvan explained to the mother that she legally has to allow her son back into the house, as it is where he also resides. While attempting to explain the eviction process to the mother, an explanation Deputy Galvan noted in his report has been told to the mother several times in the past, she became irate and refused to listen. Instead, she insisted her son had threatened her. Hearing this, Deputy Galvan told her she would need to go to the magistrate’s office to lodge a complaint. Initially the mother got up to go, before changing her mind, and sitting back down on her couch. Now let back into the house, the son decided to go to his bedroom and sleep off the remaining effects of alcohol. As the mother shouted Deputy Galvan out of the home, and he observed no indication of assault, he left the residence. Case closed by exception.
