DALLAS — A judicial candidate for one of Dallas County’s family violence courts turned herself into jail Thursday on a family violence charge.
Elissa Wev is accused of attacking her former girlfriend in their Oak Cliff home last month during an attempt to get her partner’s phone because she suspected infidelity, according to court records.
Wev, 35, is campaigning for judge of Dallas County Criminal Court at Law 10, which handles misdemeanor domestic violence cases at the Frank Crowley Courts Building in Dallas. She is running against incumbent Etta Mullin and attorney Monique Bracey Huff. The race will be decided by the Democratic primary because there is not a Republican candidate.
