Any chance you can quote some of that? Can't read without subscription.. :/
"Joshua Christopher Williams, 29, of Spotsylvania was cleared of a felony domestic assault charge. Judge Ricardo Rigual granted defense attorney Matthew Muggeridges request to have the charge dismissed after the prosecution rested its case."
"The woman, Danielle Long, had a blackened eye and other marks. The charge against Williams was a felony because he has at least two prior convictions for domestic assault.
But prosecutor Amanda Sweeneys case was hindered by the absence of Long. Sweeney said authorities had tried to compel Long to return from her new residence in New Jersey to testify, but were unable to do so. Sweeney said Long had no interest in assisting in the prosecution.
Muggeridge successfully argued that prosecution witnesses could not testify to what Long told them at the time, saying it was heresay evidence and not admissible in court."
