The Superior Court has imposed a $20,000 cash bail on a man accused of assaulting his partner.<\/p>\n

Superior Court Associate Judge Joseph Camacho has imposed a $20,000 cash bail on Brian Lee, a man accused of assaulting his partner following a heated argument.<\/p>\n

Lee, 26, is facing charges of assault and battery, assault, domestic violence, and disturbing the peace.<\/p>\n

Following the bail hearing yesterday, Camacho remanded Lee back to Department Corrections custody.<\/p>\n

According to court documents, at around 7:29pm on Dec.16, DPS responded to a female caller who was seeking police assistance as she feared her partner was going to cause trouble.<\/p>\n

At the scene, police spoke with a bystander who led police to Lee and his partner who \u201cneeded to be separated\u201d as the woman appeared to be scared.<\/p>\n

On Dec. 17, police met with the woman again who told police that on Friday, Dec. 15, Lee dropped her off to a Christmas party and picked her up at around 1:30am.<\/p>\n

She noted that as she approached the car, Lee was shouting from the inside.<\/p>\n

The woman said on the way to their home, their argument eventually calmed down.<\/p>\n

However, when they arrived home, she claims Lee assaulted her before she eventually fell asleep.<\/p>\n

The next day, she said on the way to a nearby store, Lee mentioned that he would be going to see his mother because he was not happy with her.<\/p>\n

Knowing his tendency to get physical and not wanting him to get into any more trouble, the woman asked someone at the store to call for police.<\/p>\n

That same day, Lee was arrested and brought to DOC.<\/p>\n
