A wife is accused of cutting off the penis of her estranged husband. She was arrested late last night after investigators responded to a 911 call and is now in custody at the Orange County Jail.
Catherine Kieu Becker of Garden Grove reportedly prepared dinner for her husband and put a poisonous substance or drug in his food to make him drowsy, reports KTLA. While the man was sleeping, Becker allegedly tied him to the bed. When he awakened, Becker cut his penis off with a knife and threw it into the garbage disposal, turning it on as she did so.
Lt. Jeff. Nightengale told NBC LA that Becker called 911 at around 10 p.m. requesting emergency assistance. Nightengale said that Becker "told responding officers that he ‘deserved it.’" Nightengale also revealed that the married couple was going through a divorce.
Nightengale spoke with the HuffPost and confirms that the victim has been upgraded to stable or good condition and is being treated at UC Irvine Medical Center in Orange. Nightengale also says that pieces of the severed member were recovered from the crime scene and transported to the hospital with the victim last night, but he has no details on how the surgery went. Police hope to interview the victim either today or tomorrow.
Becker has been charged with "aggravated mayhem, false imprisonment, assault with a deadly weapon, administering a drug with intent to commit a felony, poisoning and spousal abuse," according to the Associated Press. The most serious of these charges is "aggravated mayhem," which carries a life sentence with possibility of parole (as opposed to just "mayhem," which has a sentence of 3-5 years).
Of the aggravated mayhem charge, Nightengale says, "It’s so heinous — we’re looking at this as premeditated. Her intention was to permanently deprive him of a piece of his body and do it in such a way to inflict a great amount of pain and psychological damage." He also adds, "I’ve been doing this for 22 years and the only other time I remember this happening was when Lorena Bobbitt did it, and that didn’t even happen here. This isn’t a typical domestic violence case — it was way over the top."
This cunt’s clit should be cut off.
I believe in chivalry but this is not a novelty story.
Since when is it okay to laugh at men who are the victims of unprovoked female violence? No matter what this man did, this woman is a psychopath. There is no justification for what she did and she should be locked up for life.
This is why a whore beats a wife any day. They are the true guardians of cock. I truly love whores and they would never do this shit.
@origen – You lost me at your last point. There are, unfortunately, plenty of psychotic whores out there. There are psychotic women of all kinds, in all walks of life. And it’s always been that way — the west just didn’t realize it consciously until men started becoming afraid of picking up hitchhiking Manson girls.
Yeah, I’m sorry. I just wanted to lash out on wives for a second there. This story is so disgusting. More and more I become disillusioned with the idea of marriage but, you’re right, women from all walks of life can do this shit.
The part that gets me is her tossing it in the garbage disposal. It just creeps me right the fuck out to think about that happening.
The lesson to be learned is hide your set of Ginsu Knives each and every time you invite a babe over to your house. I remember years ago I was involved with this very sexy model turned wannabee actress but she was a bit of a train wreck during this particular stretch and I remember hiding my knife set in my dish washer each night before I went to sleep. I finally kicked her out but I was taking no chances. Note to all women: Do not cut off anybody’s dick.
@Will Ryder – Dude, that’s so funny. I may have told you this before, but I once had a young lady over who, just as turned out the lights (with my back to her in bed) confessed to me that she been locked up as a teen because “I stabbed my boyfriend 17 times in the face, neck and chest, nearly severing his head.”
I excused myself and went into the other room. Chasey Lain was living with me at the time, and I woke her up and instructed her to go hide all the cutlery. “Where?” she asked. “In the oven!” I whispered, then went back to bed.
Chasey kinda went off the deep end herself Michael. You sure can pick em’. Last I heard she was working at the Bunny Ranch.
I’ve known Chasey since Dec 1993. She was not only the most beautiful woman I’d ever seen at the time I met her, she was always very sweet and kind to me. When she was “somebody” she never looked down her nose at me. And I’ll tell you what, she is also the only person in my whole life who has ALWAYS paid me back every cent I ever loaned her. That says something.
Yes, she ran into some major problems, but when she needed somewhere safe to go she came to me. It was a very difficult and painful time, but she is and will always remain my dear friend. I have many many wonderful memories of her and our adventures together — and they far outweigh the ugly stuff.
