Wife accused of tampering with husband's table saw
 

OLYMPIA, Wash. - Court papers allege that an Olympia woman, angry that her husband left her, tampered with his power tools so that he received a powerful electric shock.

Carolyn Paulsen-Riat was booked Friday into the Thurston County Jail for investigation of third-degree assault, domestic violence, and second-degree malicious mischief. A judge released the 33-year-old woman on her own recognizance.

The Olympian reports that court documents say that on Jan. 1, the man was using a 220-volt table saw when he received the shock, knocking him to the ground. Thurston County sheriff's deputies say the man did not need to go to a hospital.

In the documents, deputies say the woman told them she had reversed the wires on his power tools because she was angry he was leaving.

That's shocking news.

That is stunning i tell you.

I bet he never saw that coming.

Additional electrocution pun!

:D

No wonder he decided that he needed a new socket.

sounds like he shoulda pulled the plug on the relationship earlier..

You have to admit, she put up some resistance!

That's just revolting...

I'll bet that guy is a tool.

I'll be there was some emotional energy surging through his body after that...

i guess you can say sparks flew when the divorce papers were filed....

I guess he should have tried putting the spark back in his marriage!

It's hard to be either positive or negative about this story.

It was CoMo's idea.

This is full of win.

ROFL

Too bad this wasn't more Current

Mentally, she wasn't very well grounded.

Was he an AC or DC?

Showed him Watts up

ROFL

"...for those about to saw..
we electrocute ..you!"

Electricity my dear Wattson

Ohm my

Saw VI

Good thing it didn't kill him...she would've definitely gotten the electric chair.

I wonder what they're going to Charge her with?

Shouldn't this be in DC? Don't most current events go there?

Nice work.

Yes, the lounge should be shielded from this discussion.

I will strangle you with an extension cord you little bitch.

Wait.... I love lamp?

Guess I'm not very good at these.

Don't feel bad. Just keep practicing. I'm sure joule get better at it.

I realize your capacitance for electrical puns may be low, but there's no need for such resistance! Admittedly, they are worse in series...

An illuminating observation!

She just needed an outlet for her flustrations.

this is sure to end up in Circuit Court

Yep, she was just too amped up for her own good.

I heard it happened because he cut her out of the will...

I think she should be Charged with a felony Battery!

I am neutral, myself. OhM G! She could have killed him.

I was gonna say, you SEEM well-grounded.

LOl! :thumb:

This sure has generated a lot of interest.

Why would he want to leave such a wonderful woman?
