Woman bit off friend's husband's testicle, British court told
NEWCASTLE, Dec 6 (AFP) -
A mother of two admitted Wednesday to biting off her best friend's husband's testicle after a night out erupted into violence, although the injured
man did not realise at the time.
The court in Newcastle upon Tyne, northeast England, was told the trouble flared after the two women returned home after a night out to their
husbands, who had been babysitting.
Denise Carr, 32, leapt to the defence of her friend Shelley Hutchinson when the latter's husband Neil began attacking her.
Neil Hutchinson then fought with Denise Carr, sitting on her.
The court was told Carr began biting her attacker "in order to get him off her."
"The defendant was not aware that she had bitten his testicle until after the incident," prosecutor Stephen Duffield said.
It was only after police arrived at the house in Gateshead, near Newcastle, that the missing testicle was discovered under a picture frame in the
sitting room.
Carr was originally charged with wounding with intent but that was reduced to affray, which she admitted.
The hearing was adjourned until January 8 for sentencing.
Speaking after Wednesday's court case, Denise Hutchinson said her husband had not realised how seriously he had been injured.
She said they had been married only three weeks when the incident happened on October last year but were now divorced. |
