Woman slices daughter's boyfriends penis whilst high, only gets home detention

Well isn't this a doozy of an article:

Woman who sliced teen's penis with box cutter escapes jail

What I think is amazing is how, when men are arrested for doing violent acts they are usually charged with and punished for multiple crimes for the same act.

Let's play a little game with this one and see how many charges this woman should have faced:
  • Assault with a deadly weapon
  • Deprivation of liberty
  • Occasioning grievous bodily harm
  • Reckless endangerment of life whilst under the influence of drugs
  • Attempted murder (she did threaten his life by telling him to choose between his member and his life)
Let's not forget that she was unapologetic about the whole incident because, despite saying "she only wanted to scare the teenager and didn't mean to hurt him", the article has her quoted as saying "she wanted to scar him so that he would have to look at it every time that he had sex in the future" - doesn't sound like she "didn't mean to hurt him", unless she thinks that getting scars doesn't hurt.

I guess we shouldn't expect much justice for the guy, it's not like he had a right to safety or anything.
