Equal Opportunity Violence

When Topeka enraged thousands by decrminalizing domestic violence, one of our readers pointed out (rightfully) that female-on-male violence is on the rise.  In honor of that comment, we have the following:

EVERETT, Wash. — A woman has appeared in court accused of cutting her sleeping husband's neck and shoulder with a power saw.

Officers who arrived at the home in Everett, Wash., say they could hear the victim shouting: "You tried to cut my head off. You're going to jail."

The Daily Herald reported the 43-year-old woman appeared in court Monday on a charge of domestic violence assault and a judge kept her bail at $250,000. The newspaper did not identify her.

Police say the woman told officers she grabbed the saw Friday night because an intruder escaped out her daughter's window.

Police say there is no evidence of an intruder, and how that translates into cutting her husband with a saw. Methinks there is more to the story, but that is all we have so far.
