Molino Man Charged With Attack On Girlfriend

June 18, 2017

Update: The charges in this case were dropped in November 2017 because “the victim does not want the case prosecuted further”, according to the State Attorney’s Office.

A Molino man has been charged with grabbing his girlfriend, attempting to hit her with his pickup truck and and dragging her back inside a house.

Dustin James Harvey, 30, was charged with felony aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, felony kidnapping false imprisonment and battery for the incident at the home the couple has shared on Fairground Road for the past five years.

Harvey allegedly took his girlfriends’ wallet, keys and phone, shoved her around, body slammed her and attempted to run over her with his pickup truck. He eventually threw her into the back of the truck and then dragged her inside their home.  The victim was able to text a friend to call 911 fo her.

The victim refused treatment from Escambia County EMS, but did suffer obvious injuries, according to an arrest report.

Harvey was later released from the Escambia County Jail on an $11,000 bond.

    So his bond is 11,000 but the man that jumped on his 77 year old mother was 5,000 really

    I agree with Steph wholeheartedly. The children nowadays see and hear too much garbage. My kids turned out good however, I should’ve seriously restricted TV to one hour a day and no gadgets.

    This is becoming a thing that happens to much in this area. Why are so many men …..well “boys” acting like wild animals with no care or concern and why are do so many women have such low self esteem that they let this happen over and over. And the poor children that grow up in this bad environment. What a pity!

    So afraid of him that she refused medical treatment even though she was
    obviously injured? Someone must love this woman and intervene before it is too late.

    John, it seems you don’t know what ”felony kidnapping false imprisonment” means. It doesn’t matter that they both live there, what matters is that he didn’t let her leave.

    I judge this to be a bad thing.

    Really, 11000 bond, I bet if it was the judges daughter it wouldn’t be that low.

    ” felony kidnapping false imprisonment” “the couple has shared on Fairground Road for the past five years.”
    He held her in her own home? Sounds like drummed up charges ,,,, or someone is stretching the truth

    Who thought it was a good idea to bail this scum out of jail? So he could finish what he started?
