The nature of Sam’s relationship with the alleged victim remains unclear. Authorities have confirmed that Sam’s case will be forwarded to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office, where it will undergo evaluation for potential criminal charges.
Notably, the woman involved in the altercation did not require medical attention, as stated by the police.
In a significant development, a source familiar with the case has informed TMZ that Sam Underwood has gathered a substantial body of evidence to refute the accusations made against him.
