The 37-year-old woman from Emmen who put a man in his thigh on July 20 can go home immediately. The court does not believe that there was a attempted serious abuse. The injury was too light for that.
The judge did impose a prison sentence of three months for mistreatment, threat and insult. With a conditional community service of eighty hours. For example, a prison sentence of fifteen months had been demanded against the woman for attempted, five months of which were conditional.
The punishment is lower because the judge is based on a milder criminal offense. The woman had been in custody for nine months, longer than she should sit now.
After a fight about removing her bank cards and methadone, the woman stuck with a knife in the leg of the 50-year-old man. Two keys were needed for the wound of two centimeters. The wound was not deep, because the woman had not put force. The intention is to seriously injure the man, concludes the judge.
A dragging conflict about the care of animals preceded the fight with the 50-year-old victim. The woman also received the punishment for insulting an agent. She spit him in the face. She also threatened him.
