Abusive Woman Ordered to Pay $500 to Women's Shelter

Domestic Violence shawn writes "The case of Chuck Finley and Tawny Kitaen is discussed once again in this report from ABC News and the Associated Press. Although the article focuses on Kitaen's 12 million dollar alimony lawsuit against Finley, the article mentions something that is both bizarre and a sign of our times. To recap, Kitaen (a woman) was found guilty of spousal assault against Finley (a man). Her punishment, you ask? In part, she was ordered to pay $500 dollars to a battered-women's shelter - presumably a shelter that excludes men. A woman commits domestic violence against her husband and the people who benefit are women who deny that battered men exist."

Battered men really are invisible.
For battered men the battering never ends.

You got that right, Ray.

It's like I said, once before, Women of today are the "007 gender" lisenced to kill. (or commit DV.)

Funny thing about ol' Tawny Kitaen.
After I learned of her abuse of Mr. Finley, I decided I'd do a bit of "home-work" on this li'l gal. I learned a great deal about her. For one thing she's a LOUSY acteress. She's been in TV shows like "WKRP in Cincinati", and "Hercules, the legendary journeys".
But that's nothing compared to what I found out about her movie career. One movie of Ms. Kitaen's stood out like the proverbial "sore thumb".
It's one she probably would like to forget, One she would probably like EVERYONE to forget.
It was called "THE ADVENTURES OF GWENDOLINE". It seems Ms. Kitaen has a kinky side. for in this movie the main theme is "girls in bondage"!
yup, you got it, Tawny plays the title character, She gets tied up, chained up, whipped, spanked..., You get the idea.

Tsk, Tsk..., Tawny, Tawny, Tawny. What's UP with you, girl...? Sounds to me like you (may) "get-off" on violence.

As far as her being ordered to pay money to a "Battered woman's shelter"..., This doesn't suprise me a bit. ANGERS me, yes, Suprises me, no.

Maybe we should order the Nazis to pay money to the 'Arian nation' or the 'KKK' or the 'Neo-Nazis'. You know to make up for what was done to Jewish people.
Hey, why NOT?!? It makes the same ammount of sense, doesn't it...?

Woman Gets Life for Skinning Boyfriend
Reuters

CANBERRA, Australia (Nov. 9) - A woman began a lifelong sentence behind bars Friday, never to be released, for murdering and skinning her boyfriend in a cannibal orgy.

A court was told Katherine Knight stabbed her partner John Price at least 37 times with a butcher's knife, skinned his body, cooked his head and served him up in dishes with nameplates for each of his children.

Knight, 46, became the first woman in Australia whose file was marked never to be released from jail after pleading guilty to butchering 44-year-old Price in his home in Aberdeen, 125 miles northwest of Sydney, in February last year.

''She is starting her life sentence in a high security unit of Mulawa jail in western Sydney and this really does mean life under truth-in-sentencing laws introduced in 1990,'' a court spokesman told Reuters.

New South Wales Supreme Court judge Barry O'Keefe, handing down the sentence, said Knight, in a new black night gown, showed Price ''no mercy'' when she attacked him after the couple had apparently had sex, according to media reports.

Price's attempt to escape the frenzied attack -- planned 48 hours earlier -- culminated with him getting out of the house only to be dragged back in by Knight.

O'Keefe said Knight, who had worked as a meat slicer, skinned Price with such expertise and a steady hand that his skin, including that of his head, face, nose, ears, neck, torso, genital organs, and legs, was removed to form one pelt.

''The excised parts of Mr. Price were then taken to the kitchen and at some stage, after she peeled and prepared various vegetables, she cooked Mr. Price's head in a large pot with a number of vegetables she had prepared so as to produce a sickening stew,'' he told the court.

''The gruesome steaks were then arranged on plates together with the vegetables which she had baked and left as meals for the son and daughter of the deceased accompanied by vindictive notes.''

O'Keefe said Knight's evil actions came from resentment arising out of her rejection by Price after a six-year relationship, her impending expulsion from his home, and his refusal to share his assets with her, particularly his house which he wanted to keep for his children.

While I know for a fact this story is true,
I feel a bit un-comfortable going to a website called "ihatewomen.com".
Anyway. Yeah, this story made me sick. literaly, as well as figureativly.
The worse thing is, is that I never ONCE saw anything in the media about it. I think I learned about it on MANN or maybe another men's website.
I went ahead and looked into it, and found it too disgusting for words.
Of course we all know if a man had done this horrible thing to a woman, the media would have had wall to wall coverage on it.
But, of course, they didn't. ...as usual.
And finaly, How much does any one want to bet, that if the sexes in this case were reversed, The man would have gotten the DEATH PENALTY, not a LIFE SENTENCE, for the pre-meditation and particular heinousness of this crime.
I don't know, do they HAVE the death-penalty in Australia? If not never mind.
