Wanda Baucus: ‘You don't have the story at all'By TED MONOSON - IR Washington Bureau - 05/08/04
Wanda Baucus and her lawyer say they plan to vigorously fight a misdemeanor assault charge that was brought against her following an argument over mulch at a Washington, D.C., garden center.
"This will not be over until the big bell rings out in the end," the wife of Montana Democratic Sen. Max Baucus said when reached at her home in Washington's upscale Georgetown neighborhood.
The incident between Wanda Baucus and Tierney Augusta Barron took place on April 20 at Johnson's Garden Center. Baucus was charged with simple assault on April 21 and she is scheduled to appear in D.C. Superior Court on Monday morning. The main purpose of the appearance will likely be to set a trial date, Wanda Baucus' lawyer David Schertler said.
Wanda Baucus said that news stories about the case have not been accurate.
