"The consequence of love biting"

Man strangles woman over a hickey -- yes, a HICKEY.

But don't fret, she's still alive.

Police responded to complaints about a disturbance at a Sheboygan apartment around 8:30 p.m. Friday and found the victim with dried blood on her lip and scratches around her neck.

She told police Jerome M. Lucious Jr. of Sheboygan strangled her with both hands and threatened to kill her after she questioned him about a hickey on his neck and slapped him.

Lucious admitted that he threw the victim against the wall Friday and put his hands around her throat after she slapped him, according to The Sheboygan Press. "

Now before I read the story I thought that this fool attacked her for leaving a hickey on him -- I was thinking she was the other woman and he didn't want his main one to find out. Then I read on and see that the reasoning behind his madness is much, much lamer. All she did was ask about the miniature neck bruise and homie went apeshit. It saddens me.

There goes another 21-year-old who had a world of opportunity waiting for him. . .

*cough* okay, maybe not. He was actually a repeat offender and is now facing seven years in prison and three years on probation. Tsk, tsk. If I'm getting strangled for asking about a hickey then I'm sorry, I guess we're both dying that night because there's no way. . .& the truly disturbing part of this is that there's a good chance the victim will go back to him.
