But the judge denied Coburn’s request, claiming there was not enough evidence of physical abuse.
“There’s a viral video going around of her spitting on my French fries,” Coburn said in court. “I didn’t know about this until it got all over social media.”
Court documents indicate Santos and Coburn had been in a relationship for about two years.
Santos pleaded not guilty to two counts of distributing food with a harmful substance, our sister station Boston 25 News reported.
The next hearing is scheduled for the end of July.
