Gibson claims the charges were filed by her estranged husband,John David Gibson,who has a history of arrests including violations of protective orders and threats.She alleges that her husband assaulted her during a custody exchange and then retaliated by pressing charges against her. Gibson had previously faced controversy during her political campaign due to videos she <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wisconsin-supreme-court-strikes-down-1849-abortion-law\/\" title=\"Wisconsin Supreme Court Strikes Down 1849 Abortion Law\">made wiht<\/a> her husband on adult streaming platforms, which she saeid were done to fulfill his fantasies and later became public without her consent.
