Jail for woman accused of beating a Jehovah's Witness

December 9, 2005 1:21 PM The Associated Press

SAN BRUNO, Calif. Three months in jail is the sentence for a California woman who used a butcher knife to beat a Jehovah's Witness, after the woman knocked on her door on Christmas Day.

Cathy Infusino also will spend three months in a work program and three years on probation. She pleaded no contest to assault with a deadly weapon.

Her lawyer says Infusino was paranoid and was being harassed by neighbors at the time of the attack.

The Jehovah's Witness had shown up at Infusino's apartment by mistake and was looking for a neighbor who was interested in the religion. Infusino grabbed her by the hair and pulled her into the apartment.

The attorney says Infusino is taking medication now and seeing a psychiatrist regularly.

Looks like the angles were sleeping on the job. Maybe they had Christmas Day off because of that big birthday party! :)

yep so much for angelic protection whilst doing the preaching work

in a new york bethel minute

isn't a beating with a knife called a stabbing? who hits someone with a knife handle? hehe it's so much more effective using the sharp end

When I was a JW I went out door to door every Christmas. Actually the people were very nice to me and wished me a merry Christmas and I would say,"Thank you, and I hope you have a nice holiday too". Of course we couldn't say merry Christmas.

How is something that happened on Dec 25 being reported on Dec 9? And if it was last Xmas, how come the story is just now being reported?

Maybe it's a public service announcement to everyone to not beat up JWs on Xmas if they want to avoid going to jail...
