A judge has dismissed domestic violence charges against U.S. women’s national team goalkeeper Hope Solo, according to Chris Daniels of KING 5 News.
Solo, 33, was charged in June with two counts of fourth-degree domestic violence assault for allegedly hitting her half-sister and 17-year-old nephew.
On Tuesday, all charges were dismissed. Solo was not present in court when the judge announced the decision, according to Daniels.
Solo had been scheduled to go on trial on Jan. 20.
According to Daniels, Kirkland judge Michael Lambo said that the case was “impermissibly prejudiced” by a lack of cooperation from witnesses, leading the judge to dismiss charges.
