Thread: Proof that men aren't into weddings as much as women are

OTTAWA — A Gatineau, Que., man has pleaded guilty to attempted murder after savagely beating his wife and stabbing her in the face with a broken beer bottle in front of stunned guests at a wedding.

Jorge Mejias Sanchez, 49, attacked his wife, 36, at a reception at Chateau Cartier on Aug. 25, 2012. He punched her and struck her with a chair and table centrepiece.

He took off and guests called police, who took statements from the wife and witnesses.

Officers then went out looking for Sanchez while his wife stayed behind at the reception.

Police didn’t find him, but he came back to the reception just after midnight and stabbed his wife in the face with a broken beer bottle.

Guests were able to restrain him until the cops returned to take him away. The woman was taken to hospital with serious wounds to her back, chest and mouth.

The Crown and defence have asked for a nine-year prison sentence.

That poor woman...

9 year prison sentence? That's way too lenient.

wow...what in the hell was she marrying him for? Must have been for money. She had to have seen signs that he was a lunatic long ago. Holy cow.

I guess he had cold feet.

Yea, not shit.

I say let some of the family members play "Surviving the Game" with him.

I'm thinking an annulment is in order.

Marriage is sacred. They can work through this.

Do it for the kids.

I'm wondering how he was able to get near his wife when he came back... something tells me this was a middle Eastern families wedding

I'd like to hear his side of the story before I pass judgement

I'm pretty sure we can say that unless he has an open wound on his face from her stabbing him the night prior, it was probably unjustified. I'm all for "innocent until proven guilty," but when there's a hundred witnesses that saw you stab a chick in the face with a broken bottle, you are guilty of stabbing her in the face and should be judged as such. A kid shows up to a school and kills 25 people.... You don't say "Well, I'd really like to find out why he did it before I decide he's guilty of the crime." Wat? Whatever cockeyed excuse he's going to have is STILL not going to justify stabbing a bitch in the face.

yeah, maybe. But maybe he already told her to shut-up twice before? I mean a guy can only say it SO many times.

I think the thing that surprises me most is that there are Mexicans in Canada.
