The TCPalm reports Erica Mize, 24, was busted after she hit a 23-year-old with her shoe once the contest was over on May 21.
Mize originally told a Martin County Sheriff's detective that the other contestant told her she was was going to 'beat her _____."
Mize also claimed her shoe only hit the woman when she was yanked to the ground by the arm.
However, the other woman had a different story to tell, saying Mize told her "you should go to the gyno because you're in for a rude awakening."
Mize's ex-boyfriend is the current boyfriend of the alleged victim.
When the woman went to talk to Mize after the contest, she nailed her in the head with the high heel.
Mize was charged with battery and received a notice to appear in court.
