JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A Nassau County woman who faced a criminal charge after she was accused of deliberately coughing on and then threatening another shopper inside a Jacksonville store last year pleaded guilty Monday, News 6 partner News4Jax reported.
Debra Jo Hunter, of Fernandina Beach, was booked into the Duval County jail last year and charged with misdemeanor assault, according to jail records.
She was released the same day after posting bond.
