It's not the leaving of Liverpool that grieves me, But my darling when I think of thee.

Amanda Monti, 24, flew into a rage when Geoffrey Jones, 37, rejected her advances at the end of a house party, Liverpool Crown Court heard.

She pulled off his left testicle and tried to swallow it, before spitting it out. A friend handed it back to Mr Jones saying: "That's yours." (BBC)

And now, the punchline:
In a letter to the court, Monti said “I am in no way a violent person."


Frankly, I didn't realize those things came off that easily.

I wonder if that guy is built like our old t.v. set. You know the kind where you just wanted to change the station but the knob would come off in your hand.

Also, you know who's not getting enough credit in this story? The kind friend who handed it back to him. That's a pal.

(this is even more alarming than the jilted-lover-drives-a-thousand-miles-in-the-astro-diapers story you treated us to a while back)

I too thought those guys were more firmly attached!

First of all, how did she get hold of the thing? Was he wearing shorty-mc-short shorts?
Secondly, if you saw a testicle get ripped off, partially eaten, and spat onto the floor, would you pick it up? There's not enough hand sanitizer in the world! I don't care how much I like the guy- he can pick his own ball up!

Logic would suggest that vast quantities of alcohol were involved.

My understanding is she yanked his pants down and grabbed. I say, gentlemen, bring back suspenders. Sure, they look goofy, but think of the alternative.

I think she should get business cards that say: Amanda Monti, now with vice-like grip.

My first thought too - lots of alcohol involved here (and possible other substances not for sale in the supermarket....)

Thanks for the pun about the tv set.

And - what happened to it? Did they stitch it back on? Or is it preserved in a jar on the bedside table?

Doctors were not able to re-attach it. I hope he was allowed to take it home and keep it on the mantle. It's quite the conversation piece.
