Controversies
On July 9, local authorities arrested Henriquez on domestic kidnapping and witness intimidation charges, stating that he may eventually be charged with assault. An unnamed Boston woman accused him of holding her in his car against her will, and claimed that Henriquez punched her when she attempted to leave. He was let free after posting a $1,000 cash bail, and plead not guilty in Roxbury District Court.[3][4] Prosecutors eventually dropped the kidnapping charge.[5]
