'sure are a lot of nutty women running around these days.
At first I couldn't believe that she actually tried the "self defence" excuse, but then I thought; "oh yeah, that excuse is allowed now a days when it's female on male DV."
What DID surprise me is that the jury DIDN'T let her get away with it!
Thundercloud.
"Hoka hey!"

Oh my, the "abuse excuse" card is obviously a bit shop worn and doesn't pack the wallop it once did for husband killers.
Even a petite and perky middle aged school teacher (Michigan vs. Seaman) got convicted of first degree murder of her husband in Misandric Michigan of all places around Christmas time last year. Her defense was centered on the "abuse excuse" but the jury saw through that and convicted her like the jury did to that other husband killer in Hong Kong.
GOOD!!! :)

I bet she was shocked that the jury did not find her not guilty - besides the abuse, she stood to loose his income.

I guess calling a taxi to get away from him, if he were actually abusive, was too inconvenient.

When she plotted her pre-meditated murder, complete with a pre-fabricated defense, she forgot that she wasn't in the U.S. Here, she would've looked forward to community service, some hanky-wringing from N.O.W., a book and a made-for-TV movie on Lifetime.

Have you seen the DOJ report that says women get shorter prizon sentences than men?
When I was at grad school, some feminist b%&#@ exclaims in class that women universaly get harsher punishment than men from the legal system. I went to the DOJ website and found a study specifically on this topic and sent it to her - she never replied. I guess feminists in academics are not interested in knowledge and truth.

N.O.W., where would you get that idea?

Anonymous User writes "An American woman in Hong Kong, Nancy Kissel, was convicted this Thursday after she drugged her husband with a milkshake laced with sedatives, and then beat him to death -all to avoid a divorce that was threatened after her infidelity. Her defense? "I was abused, he was a workaholic, he snorted cocaine, and, perhaps most incredibly: it was self-defense".
