Boston Municipal Court Docket # 09-6570. The prosecution alleged that on August 7, 2009 the defendant, a local college student struck his girlfriend with broken glass, assaulted and beat her and threatened her with harm if she contacted the police. According to the victim, on the date of this incident our client entered her apartment while she was sleeping. He had been drinking and confronted her about recent incidents of infidelity. The woman asked him to leave. He refused and continuously insulted her, using profanity and threats. The defendant subsequently destroyed several personal items, breaking glass in the process. The victim was struck with pieces of the broken glass. The defendant left after she started screaming for help but not before threatening her with harm if she notified the authorities. The woman further claimed that in the course of the incident our client struck her several times. Earlier today Attorney Neyman succeeded in getting the charges continued without a finding. All charges will be dismissed against our client if he remains free from criminal legal trouble for a specified period of time.
