LONGVIEW (KYTX) - A Gregg County woman says her husband could be headed to prison for using foul language against his probation officer. She says it happened after the officer saw her naked.

Holly Paulsen filed a report with Kilgore police, but says she was turned away from filing a complaint just 90 minutes ago at the Gregg County Courthouse. Her fear is no one in court will hear their side of the story.

Paulsen and her husband, Pedro Guzman, are serving probation on unrelated convictions.

She says a female Gregg County Probation officer was giving her a drug test in her bathroom, but left the door open. That's when a male officer walked up and saw her naked. Guzman used foul language in asking the officer to stop looking at his wife, but a day later, Guzman was arrested. Now, prosecutors are considering revoking his probation and sending him to prison.


"He has made comments to my husband, 'You have a very attractive wife. She's very beautiful,' and he has asked him to stop saying those comments, because it's made me uncomfortable for when he makes the home visits, and it's made my husband very uncomfortable," Paulsen said.

We've requested employee histories on the officers involved in this incident, and for that Kilgore police report, but they've yet to be made public.

Gregg County's adult probation director referred all questions to the district attorney's office, which is withholding comment while deciding if it will seek revocation of Guzman's probation.

Guzman is serving 10 years' probation for a 2012 aggravated kidnapping conviction. He's in the Gregg county jail tonight without bond.

CBS 19 is withholding the officers' names until information requests have been answered by police or Gregg County Human Resources Department.
