Ex-wife hog-ties Florida man, drags him behind truck: police

ORLANDO, Florida (Reuters) - A Florida man's ex-wife used a stun gun on him, tied him to a truck bumper and dragged him for half a mile before he escaped, the Volusia County Sheriff's Office reported.

Robert Hall, 54, remained in the surgical intensive care unit on Thursday at Halifax Health Medical Center in Daytona Beach, where he was being treated for a broken pelvis, broken facial bones and bleeding in his brain, according to the sheriff's office.

The attack took place in a rural part of New Smyrna Beach, a popular Florida resort town, where Hall typically stayed at the home of his ex-wife, Jeanette Morris, 61, while she was away working as a truck driver.

Morris suspected that Hall had allowed his girlfriend in the house and arranged for a deputy to escort her when she returned to her home Tuesday night in order to avoid a confrontation, the sheriff's report said. The deputy left the house after Morris told him she would spend the night at her brother's house.

The version I recall from my days at Newport News was- “ I’d have killed that woman so long ago I’d be out by now..”

Withholding judgment until I’ve seen a picture of the lovely ex-bride.

From the comments below the article: American view: "MAN-O-Man Did any one else search Jeanette Morris Picture? She makes Granny on the Beverly hill Billy's look like a cold stone FOX !" and is it just me or does that woman have an Adam's apple?

My wife was great. It was the inlaws I wanted to drag behind a truck. then back over. Then run over. Then do bleach burnouts on. Then set on fire. Probably best that ‘they are there’ and I am here’.

Read where they closed in 1977. Wish it was earlier and would have saved me from buying a leisure suit. All in all it didn't look too bad as leisure suits go.

"drags him behind truck:"

Don't get me started on all the redundancies that waste our precious time and energy every day. How could she drag him in front of the truck, huh?!
