Cantonment Woman Charged With Battery of Two People Over Age 65

November 14, 2022

A Cantonment woman is accused of the battery of two people over age 65.

Wendy Jean Allen, 52, was charged with two counts of felony battery on a person 65 years of age or older in a domestic violence situation.

Allen stands accused of hitting her 69-year old mother in the face with a purse after the two got into an argument over a cell phone. Allen allegedly snatched the cell phone out of the victim’s hand before striking her with the purse.

Her 66-year old stepfather then attempted to make Allen leave the residence at which time Allen grabbed him by the shirt, according to an arrest report.

Allen’s mother had blood on her face at a cut on her finger, deputies said.

Allen remained in the Escambia County Jail Monday morning without bond due to a probation violation charge.

    Let me first start with I DO NOT believe it’s ok to hit your mother or any senior for any reason. Just as Bill T stated it’s easier to just leave. However saying all that, this lady “may or may not ” have a mental illness that needs to be taken into consideration before condemning her too bad . I haven’t seen her in several years but I do remember her as being so very sweet when she wasn’t going through a hard time. Maybe we can show her a little grace while it seems as though she is struggling. Before you come for me let me say again I don’t believe in hitting your mother or any senior for any reason. I wish this family love and happiness for the future.

    Serves her right being arrested. That look on her face doesn’t appear remorseful at all. That’s just wrong on so many levels!

    Woman you should be ashamed of yourself, hitting your poor momma in the face. One day she won’t be around and you’ll be very sorry!

    If ya stop and think for a minute you would realize you don’t hit your mother for any reason!!! These charges are serious as you will see I just hope the state picks up the charges and continues on with a case!!! Could be looking at a long jail stay if convicted!!! Would have been easier to just leave !!!!
