Dr. Adams' Ex Wife Claims Brutality

Dr. Jan Adams physically assaulted his ex-wife, according to court documents obtained by TMZ.

TMZ has obtained a restraining order filed by Susie Field, former wife of music mogul turned movie producer Ted Field. According to the document, Field claims on Thanksgiving Day, November 23, 2006, Dr. Adams became upset with Susie for taking a phone call during dinner. Susie claims, "He wanted to speak to whomever was calling me."

They began arguing and went up to the bedroom. According to the document, Dr. Adams was yelling, "I'm going to f**king kill you. I'm going to beat you. You need to be beaten." Susie claims Dr. Adams then "swung his right closed fist at my face...he attacked me," adding, [Dr. Adams] grabbed me with one arm and threw me toward the bed. I struck the bed and fell onto the floor."

Susie claims there was another incident as well. In September, 2005, she says they were at a New York nightclub, where he became angry because another man was looking at her. According to the document, when they returned to the hotel, he became "angry, threw me on the bed and began to strangle me. I thought I was going to die as he strangled me to the point of almost blacking out."

The judge granted the restraining order on November 28, 2006. Two days later, Susie filed for divorce. They were married in early 2006 and the divorce was final in February, 2007.

6. I'm not buying it Harvey. These mean and hateful psycho b!tches come out of the woodwork for 3 minutes of fame.

I'm not too sure this doctor did anything wrong.

I will wait for the autopsy reports to come back.

Innocent until proven guilty.

13. After the September 2005 incident, I wouldn't have been around for the marriage or aftermath.

14. Ok, not to blame the victim. But if some body assualts me, chokes me , and in any other way injurys me back in September, 2005, there is no way in the hell i'm going to still turn around and marry his crazy ass a couple of months later. He sounds like a psycho and i for the life of me can't figure out why his licensed hasn't been revoked sooner.
