According to Lindsey, Candice was “lying on her back with Mr. Lee overtop of her with a raised fist.” Darron then reportedly shoved his mother against the wall, knocked her to the ground, and punched her in the face. Candice stated that her son became furious when she told him to leave the house. According to the site, she received treatment for facial injuries at a nearby hospital.
According to Fox News, Lindsey said that Darron reportedly assaulted her in October when he thought she was having an extramarital affair. He allegedly threatened to murder both her and their son before grabbing her by the throat and throwing her to the ground.
Darron Lee reported being struck by a female relative to the police on Monday. Afterward, he changed his narrative and claimed that the darkening on his cheek was caused by a skin problem.

Darron claimed in court documents obtained by TMZ that his girlfriend, Lindsey, had also assaulted him during the October incident and that he had never choked her or thrown anything at her. Police took him to jail after seeing photos of her injuries and a journal entry she had written following the event in October. According to The Columbus Dispatch, Lee’s bond was set at $20,000 for each incident, and even after posting bail, he is not allowed to go near either his mother or Lindsey.
Other than that, not much information has been revealed about this incident. Similarly, Darron Lee also has never shared anything about his girlfriend in the past. Hence, we are unaware of how the two met and when they started dating.
