The attorney for advisor to Mayor Andy Berke Lacie Stone said she has been thrust into the spotlight, but said she is "the victim of an unprovoked attack" by her husband, Bobby Stone.
Attorney John Cavett said it is ridiculous "to suggest that she was the perpetrator."
Mr. Stone is facing charges of domestic assault and vandalism.
Attorney Cavett said, "It is unfortunate that selected documents have been made public and do not reflect the entire story. At this point, I can state that last Friday night Lacie Stone was the victim of an unprovoked attack at the hands of her husband, Bobby Stone. When she fled her home for the sake of her safety, Mr. Stone threw a rock and shattered the back window of the car she was driving. She has cooperated fully with the Chattanooga Police Department and Hamilton County District Attorney's Office.
"After Lacie gave an initial statement to the police, she had multiple contacts with investigators and gave approximately two hours of statements on Tuesday which were not released today. Lacie was injured in the attack and those injuries have been properly documented. To suggest that she was the perpetrator in this instance is ridiculous. A lot of untrue comments are being made about Lacie. For the sake of her privacy, please give her and Mr. Stone the opportunity to work out their issues in private."
