Charges of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon and threat to commit a crime to be dismissed
Malden District Court: It was alleged that our client drunkenly attacked his wife with a large butcher knife. According to the wife, when she returned home after getting her hair done, our client pushed her onto the couch, grabbed her hair, and pushed her head back while telling her that he would kill her. It was alleged that, at some point, our client got off his wife, went into the kitchen, and came back with the knife. He allegedly held the knife to the side of her throat, pulling her head back with the other hand, and pressed it against her skin to the point that it began to feel sharp. While doing this, our client allegedly asked his wife if she was afraid to be killed by him and told her that he could kill her in an instant if he wanted. Our office was able to get the charges continued without a finding.
