Yep...understood. That's why I said it was just a guess. But, that is typically the appearance of fair-skinned folk with that history (with some sun-damage thrown in).

I'll be the plaintiff AND your defense attorney.

That way, no matter which way the case breaks, I WIN!!!!

Either something he said, or something she found out about - and there is only one thing that an, otherwise, calm woman would haul off an strngle her her husband -

He forgot to take out the trash again! :-)

Some States claim to be the victim in abuse and press charges even if the actual victim declines. I believe that Colorado is one of them.

What is interesting is that the report states the wife struck the husband against his will, but further on states that the husband states there was no physical contact.

Going to jail isn't a happy occasion, unless you are Otis, the town drunk.

" She was very reserved and had class...
Of course, things change."

Yeah, you have to watch out for those quiet ones. Decades of keeping things bottled up inside causes some to eventually snap or have a heart attack. Verbal venting is healthier.

Any woman, 59, who had just been arrested for trying to choke her husband, would look old and tired, and depressed. These things don't happen in a vacuum. Unless the woman is nuts, I am pretty sure that the attack was not unprovoked. Perhaps she responded in a public situation because it was the only place that she felt safe enough to attack him, because she knew that he wouldn't hit her in public. She doesn't look very big, I'm sure that the husband could have easily over powered her, if he thought it necessary.

Quiet? not really, more vivacious and fun loving...

One look at her told you she had been brought by a good family. She definitely knew not to use the knife for peas.

She's Billy Graham's daughter. AP would not have used a speck of ink otherwise.

It sounds to me as though attack was a long time coming, since someone else posted that when she was arrested, she showed the police a large bruise on her thigh. She doesn't look very big, the husband could have easily over powered her, if he thought it necessary. My guess is that he hit her in private and in places where the bruises would not show. He was probably just waiting until they got in the car or home to hit her.

You would know since you say you knew her.

"She definitely knew not to use the knife for peas"
.... AND she definetly knew not to use rope for strangling her spouse. So much for "fun loving".

Noone would even joke about that if the genders were reversed.

If she were a man with much stronger hands then moment of rage would have probably resulted in murder.
