TEMPLE, Texas — Editor's Note| Correction: An earlier version of this story reported she pleaded guilty, according to prosecutors.
Amanda Martinez pleaded no-contest to a charge of assault causing bodily injury in court on Friday, Feb. 24 after being accused of throwing hot soup in a Sol De Jalisco employee's face in 2021.
According to a prosecutor on the case, Martinez received 15 months of deferred probation, six days of jail on work release and an $800 fine.
