Although men seem to be more prone to cheating, increasingly, more women are cheating too, even where they have the best of intentions not to cheat. Since cheating seems to be constant in our society today, one would assume that people are equip to deal with cheating spouses and the worse that could happen is either a separation or divorce. Sadly, the pain of betrayal is causing great tribulations in the lives of many and some don't know how to let go rather they get mad and even.
Last week 57 years old Georgina Challen of Claygate, Surrey United Kingdom made headlines when her trial started for bludgeoning her husband to death in 2010. The court heard how Georgina began logging her husband's use of the pills (Viagra) after she became convinced he was cheating on her. Documenting her suspicions in a diary of deception, she wrote "liar, liar pants on fire" after discovering that some of the tablets were missing. The mother of 2 recorded how their 31-year-marriage began to fall apart as she uncovered evidence of his infidelity. Eventually in December 2006, her worst suspicions were confirmed after she saw her 61 year old retired car dealer husband on police TV footage when they raided a brothel but he claimed he did not go to the brothel to have sex with a prostitute but to sell a car. In 2009, Challen eventually left her husband and started divorce proceedings but months later the couple attempted reconciliation. The cheating didn't stop as she found more and more evidence to support her claim. She finally snapped in August 2010 after discovering that her husband had called a woman he met after their separation. She had gone to buy them lunch and on returning she noticed that the phone had been moved. She dialled 1471 and discovered he had called a woman. She served him lunch and as he ate, she sneaked up on him with a hammer, which she had brought to the house in her handbag and hit him repeatedly over the head. The attack has been described as "an attack of extreme ferocity" Mrs Challen denies murder on the grounds of diminished responsibility
Also unable to contain his rage after been dumped by his girl friend is drum 'n' bass DJ Roni Size who also appeared in court last week charged with one count of grievous bodily harm and damage to property. Size, who won the Mercury prize in 1997 with the collective Reprazent for the album New Forms, dragged Jane Andrews by her hair, armpits and head before pushing her downstairs, it was alleged. Minutes before the alleged assault, Size real name Ryan Williams grabbed Andrews's mobile phone from her hand and threw it into the street, after they had a row about who she was with the night before and Size flipped after she told him the relationship was over.
Ms Andrews told the court how she landed in a heap screaming in agony. "I watched as my leg went over and I didn't touch anything else before I hit the bottom," she said. "My bone came out all the way it was like a mushroom cloud when a bomb goes off. I sat there crumpled." She said she asked him several times to call an ambulance but he stood on the stairs and 'just kept smiling."
She was forced to drag herself out of the house and flag down a passer-by who dialed 999. The attack left her on crutches for months.
Ms Andrews told the court how Size was 'controlling' during their one-year relationship and how he saw her as a 'trophy'. The trial continues.
