Daniel Thomas, 33, of Kalona was recently found not guilty of Domestic Abuse Assault, Third or Subsequent Offense, a Class D Felony.

Thomas accrued multiple charges for felonious Domestic Abuse Assault between August of 2016 and April of 2021. Thomas was also found in violation of no contact orders and to have violated his probation on multiple occasions during that same time period.  

Washington County Attorney John Gish explains, “Thomas had four prior domestic abuse convictions, including one in Johnson County with the same victim. The accuser didn’t comply with a court’s order to appear at Thomas’ bench trial, and as a direct result, Thomas was found not guilty.”
