Man Dies After Wife Crushes Testicles
Fri October 3, 2003 08:28 AM ET
ADDIS ABABA (Reuters) - An enraged Ethiopian mother of five will be tried for the murder of her husband who died after she crushed his testicles in a fight, police told the state-run Ethiopian News Agency.
Police said on Friday the man was so embarrassed after the incident that he declined to seek treatment for the injury, and died days later.
"Following a disagreement over the husband's spending habits, his wife refused to give him his dinner and also decided to sleep alone," police in the western region of Wellega said.
"The husband was so angered by this affront by his wife that he tried to beat her. In the melee that followed, the wife grabbed and twisted his testicles causing serious damage."
Police said the unnamed woman, a resident of Wayu-Tuka district in Wellega, had had several arguments with her husband about the amount of money he spent on booze.

Trauma, possible internal bleeding, who knows.
But I'm willing to bet that women is going to be executed for the murder.

Do you know just how well vascularised that area is? That's provided the nerve signals alone from the damage don't put you into shock.

He'd be bleeding rather significantly, and that blood would pool. It then likely lead to blood poisoning which killed him.

I sense there will be an increase in the purchases of cups among wife beaters following this incident.

I gotta agree with Chardok here; guy with five kids tries to beat his wife after she yells at him for spending to much money on booze, he deserves what's comin'

What a ballbuster.
Still, I like to think this is karma in action.

All I can say is
It's painful to think about, but the bastard go what he deserved
It's not surprising it was lethal however.
Also consider the possiblibility if a testicle was ruptured. Semen and sexual fluid's leaking into the blood stream could have nasty results. I mean, come on, that stuff is rather sticky....

by beyond hope
IIRC, it only takes five and a half pounds of pressure to crush the testicles. This story just screams for a Darwin award.

Definitely a woman you don't want to F*** with!
Then again, most women bust a man's balls at one point or another. Too bad she did it literally. Then again, he deserved it.
