After displaying enthusiasm for his girlfriend’s pregnancy, a married nurse practitioner sneaked abortion pills inside her while having intercourse, according to deputies in Washington state. Now, the woman is fearing for her safety after the defendant, David Benjamin Coots, allegedly kept violating the protection order she put out against him.

“Even after the Court ordered him to have no contact with me, David has continued to make repeated contacts,” she wrote in a letter to the court. “Starting with emails that warned me to be careful of who I am listening and talking to, and now recently showing up to my sister-in-law’s house knowing my brother was not home to drop off the letter addressed to me, money, gifts, and my house key. His boldness in these increasing contacts is terrifying, and I don’t know what, if anything, will make him stop.”

Coots is charged with assault in the second degree, rape in the third degree, tampering with a witness, and five counts of violation of a court order. His wife, Melissa Marie Coots, is also charged with witness tampering. The married couple allegedly tried to buy the victim’s silence.

“It’s clear by his actions and words that he thinks he can do whatever he wants,” the woman wrote in her letter to the court. “He and his wife have already sent me money (which I sent back) to get me to not come forward.”
