The Newton County Prosecuting Attorney's Office today filed a first-degree domestic assault charge against a Neosho woman who allegedly assaulted her daughter and fractured her skull.
The complaint against Isabela Ann Conrad (DOB 1967) was in connection with events that occurred December 7, according to the probable cause statement.
Victim 1 stated that on Saturday, December 6, 2025, while driving her mother, Isabelle Ann Conrad in her personal vehicle less than one mile from Conrad`s residence at residence at Newton County, Missouri, Conrad became enraged during an argument. Conrad grabbed Victim 1 by the hair with both hands and simultaneously seized the steering wheel in an apparent attempt to cause a motor-vehicle crash.
Victim 1 was able to regain control and return to the residence.
Upon arrival at the residence, as Victim 1 attempted to gather belongings and leave, Conrad again grabbed Victim 1 by the hair and forcefully threw Victim 1 to the ground, causing Victim 1's head to strike the hard tile surface.

Victim 1 briefly defended herself before disengaging, then lost consciousness for an unknown period. Victim 1 eventually slept overnight in her vehicle in the backyard due to neurological impairment and, on Sunday morning, December 7, 2025, drove to urgent care and was transferred to Mercy Hospital Joplin.
Mercy Hospital imaging confirmed that Victim 1 sustained a fractured skull and two traumatic intracranial hemorrhages (brain bleeds) directly resulting from the assault. Victim 1 continues to suffer complete loss of smell and taste, consistent with significant traumatic brain injury.
Later the same day, at approximately 1430 hours on December 8, 2025, Deputy Jordan Tomlinson and I responded to Jordan Tomlinson and I responded to and interviewed Isabella Ann Conrad in the presence of her husband. The interview was audio-recorded.
During that interview, Conrad admitted that while her daughter was driving, she grabbed the steering wheel because the daughter was "yelling and screaming" and that in that moment she thought, "Let's just die together." She further admitted that once inside the residence she pulled her daughter's hair, causing both women to fall to the kitchen floor. Conrad claimed she sustained only a minor "goose egg" and did not seek medical treatment.
Conrad's own admissions establish that she intentionally attempted to cause a motor-vehicle collision (conduct capable of causing death or serious physical injury) and thereafter committed a violent physical assault upon her daughter.
The objective medical evidence of a skull fracture and two brain bleeds corroborates that Victim 1 in fact suffered serious physical injury as a direct result of Conrad`s actions.
