In court documents obtained by MMAjunkie, Audra Hughes detailed her harrowing story, alleging that Hughes became violent in the autumn of 2017 after his accident.
The attacks allegedly began when she would not give him the keys to his truck. She wrote in a statement that when she was showering, he opened the door and choked her:
“I was in the shower and he opened the shower and choked me,” she wrote. “Then he asked for the code to his gun vault and I said, ‘You just choked me. Do you think I’m going to give you the code?’
“He opened the shower door again and started choking me and he smashed my head against the shower and said, ‘This is what choking is!’”
That wasn’t all, as Audra detailed two other alleged instances of domestic abuse. Hughes allegedly said “I’m going to (expletive) shoot you!” when she took his cell phone away for texting other women. She reportedly confronted him about the incident in front of family and he became violent once again:
“He hit me. (My stepfather Alan) said, ‘Don’t lay another finger on her.’ He looked at Alan and grabbed my hand and tried to pull me closer to him. Alan told him to get his phone and leave. Alan and I followed him outside to make sure he didn’t do anything to our vehicles.”
Interestingly enough, Hughes has filed for divorce from Audra, citing irreconcilable differences. He also requested joint custody of their two children. Audra Hughes filed for and was given a restraining order against Hughes in December, which has been extended until May. Matt Hughes is currently required to stay 500 feet away from his wife and two daughters.
