OITNB Actress Dascha Polanco Accused of Punching 17-Year-Old Girl [Thug Life]

The site reports:

Cardona has alleged that Ms Polanco assaulted her at the teen’s Upper Manhattan home on July 29. ‘Ms. Cardona observed the defendant strike Ms. Cardona about the face and head with a closed fist at least three times, pull Ms. Cardona’s hair, and strike Ms. Cardona’s arms with the defendant’s hands and nails,’ according to court papers obtained by Page Six. While Polanco’s defense attorney Gerald Lefcourt claimed in a statement: ‘It’s a setup to try to get money and it was tape-recorded.’ ‘This young woman was trying to extort her to drop the case. We’re confident the charges will be dismissed,’ Lefcourt added. The actress was released without bail and was ordered by a judge to steer clear of Cardona. Polanco is next scheduled to be in court in January.
