‘Baby Jessica’ Choked Husband in Domestic Violence Incident, Affidavit Alleges

Jessica McClure Morales — the famous “Baby Jessica” who made national news when she fell down a well back in 1987 — allegedly choked a member of her family.

According to the probable cause affidavit for Jessica’s arrest … cops in Midland County, Texas say Jessica told them the Saturday confrontation began when she and her husband got into a heated verbal argument — during which she allegedly scratched him while trying to shove him away.

A witness apparently told the police a somewhat different story. Cops say they were told someone advised Jessica and her husband not to fight in front of a child who was in the room. Her husband allegedly said “F*** that” … before she grabbed him by the throat.

Cops say they spoke to a witness who claims Jessica’s husband shoved her away … and that led Jessica to trip over the child.

Jessica was arrested Saturday night and charged with assault causing bodily injury involving family violence, posed for a mug shot at Midland County Jail, and was released from custody after posting bond.
