“Teen Mom” star Amber Portwood’s text messages have been entered as evidence in her criminal case.
According to court documents obtained by The Blast, Indiana prosecutors have informed the court of new discovery in their case against Portwood. The court records list the discovery as “two texts with explanations”.
Prosecutors seem to be building quite the case against Portwood. They recently entered “emails, audio” and video into the court record.
They will be using the messages and other documents against Portwood in court. Prosecutors previously listed evidence as audio from the July 5 incident incident with her boyfriend, Andrew Glennon.
They also have over 20 photographs of the alleged injuries and 3 videos from a Ring camera listed as evidence. There was also an audio recording of a statement given by Glennon, so it appears he is fully cooperating with law enforcement against the mother of his child.
As The Blast previously reported, Portwood was arrested following a domestic violence incident. The reality star is facing charges of domestic battery, criminal recklessness with a deadly weapon and a felony domestic battery.
During the fight, Portwood allegedly pulled a machete on Glennon during the attack.
Following the arrest, Glennon filed suit against Portwood seeking primary custody of their 1-year-old son, James. He wants her to only have supervised visitation. He also asked the court for permission to move to California.
Portwood has objected to the move demanding her child stay in Indiana.
A hearing has been set for later this month.
