BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2022 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — A former Real Estate Agent who is now a mortgage broker is accused of strangling a victim in Boca Raton.
Michael Haberman, 31, is in the Palm Beach County Jail early Tuesday morning after being arrested Monday by the Boca Raton Police Department. Jail records reviewed by BocaNewsNow.com show that Haberman is charged with “battery — commit domestic battery by strangulation.” Haberman was booked into jail at 4:48 Monday morning. He remained behind bars as of 5:40 a.m. Tuesday.
The arrest report had not been processed by the Palm Beach County Clerk of Courts early Tuesday. His relationship to the alleged victim was unclear Tuesday morning, as was whether Haberman’s first appearance in front of a judge occurred on Monday. Bond, according to jail records, was not set. Haberman has no significant court history in Palm Beach County, but records out of St Lucie county show that he entered a plea agreement a few years ago after being arrested for stealing a car.
In exchange for a plea of “nolo contendre,” Haberman was placed on probation for two years. That probation was completed, according to court records, before his Monday arrest in Boca Raton.
