DOWNTOWN JACKSON — A Jackson woman went before a judge Tuesday morning on a domestic assault charge stemming from an argument with her husband. Police responded to a domestic disturbance just after midnight Monday at a Campbell Street home, according to an affidavit. Officers spoke with Charity Lavia, who told them she and her husband got into an argument when she accused him of hiding a list of chores, the document states.
