Wife 'threw man's severed penis in garbage'

A CALIFORNIAN woman was in custody overnight accused of cutting off her husband's penis before tossing it into the garbage disposal.

Catherine Kieu Becker, 48, allegedly drugged the man's food to render him unconscious, tied him to a bed and then hacked off the reproductive organ with a knife, the Los Angeles Times reported.

Her 51-year-old husband - by now awake but gushing blood from his crotch - could do nothing as she allegedly tossed the severed penis into the garbage disposal before switching it on.

Ms Becker reportedly rang police herself who arrived at the couple's house in Garden Grove, about 48km southeast of Los Angeles, to find the man still bound to the bed. He was untied and rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery.

Ms Becker reportedly confessed to officers she had drugged her partner's meal before carrying out yesterday's gruesome attack.

She was arrested on charges of aggravated mayhem - punishable by up to life in prison - as well as false imprisonment, assault with a deadly weapon, administering a drug with intent to commit a felony, poisoning and spousal abuse, the Times reported.

"The intention by this person was to permanently deprive this victim of his genitalia," said Garden Grove Police Lt. Jeff Nightengale.

She could have just left him and filed for a divorce. It would seem like a better option than prison.

Makes you wonder what kind of a prick he was that it seemed like a good idea.

Aggravated mayhem almost sounds like fun. Good name for a video game.

My wife has been angry with me for stuff I did in dream she had. I have learned over the years... never drink or eat anything unless the kids or dog take a taste first. After this story... I will be sawing the bedbosts 7/8ths of the way through just in case.

Aw, she was just redecorating. 'Feng shui' = 'throw you husband's junk out'. Guess she took it literally.

I bet Lorena Bobbitt is going, 'Damn. Garbage disposal. Why didn't I think of that?'

Lorena Bobbit is kicking herself because all she did was make a porn star out of her husband

Nah, this being California they'll let her off with a warning and put a statue up in her honor.

to be optimistic, if a transplant is an option for the victim he could always opt for the Ron Jeremy edition.

A stiff warning? And where would they put the statue up ?

Okay, it's totally wrong, but all I can think is, "This fate could have been avoided if she had a Sassy Gay Friend!! (Not good for the easily offended...)

Neighbor Lourdes Painter told The Associated Press the couple had been married since December, did not have any children and seemed very quiet. Becker and her husband lived in a second-story condo in the working class complex. Painter lives in the unit below them.
