During his initial court appearance on July 29, the state asked for a $50,000 bond, but the judge set it at $100,000 after hearing from the alleged victim. The judge said Harmon was already on misdemeanor probation for a domestic violence offense.
According to the interim complaint, Harmon and the woman have been married for only three months but had lived together in the past.
