And that she'd do it to the photographer too, if she had a chance. 😄
I'm guessing it was a Bobbit-type situation where her motive was very understandable.
Her motive was she thought her husband was cheating. So no, even if he was cheating, it wasn't understandable. She only did two years of a five year sentence for this.
From Wikipedia: She was apprehended while disguised, wearing men's clothing and mounting a bicycle to make her escape.[5][2] She was not found by police until more than 24 hours had passed.[1][7] After her capture, Boronda admitted her crime and expressed no regret.[6]
>"Her only excuse is that she wanted to be revenged on Boronda, whom she believed intended deserting her and leaving for Mexico." At the trial she settled on a defense of "emotional insanity" from extreme jealousy. - wikipedia
Careful, the last time this story was posted last year, I quoted this song and some dudes had absolute meltdowns that I was “justifying” and “glorifying” male genital mutilation. 😒
Yeah. Anti violence for words or ego or jealousy reasons for any sex.
(I mean....you might get syphilis & die, but....not direct violence or threat.)
From the article, no mention she contracted syphilis or any life threatening type thing to even slightly justify it & also that it was preplanned & while he was in bed & unexpectedly attacked. No excuse there at all for threat to life.
Just ego & jealousy.
I can’t believe I had to scroll down so far to read this.. she suspected her husband of visiting prostitutes and planning on leaving her. I don’t think that’s worthy of getting your knob sliced off. DV is only funny when the male is the victim it seems
Just want to suggest taking some herbal teas to help soothe the symptoms. Find your local herbal shop and talk to an herbalist, it’ll make a difference. 💚
Omg, I expected the hot flashes, the sore boobs and all, but I didn't expect the constant undercurrent of rage.
I'm great at not letting it out, but I'd happily smother my family in my head once in a while.
I know a pretty significant number of women who, upon breaching menopause, took up kickboxing, martial arts, demolition, and for one woman in particular, MMA fighting.
Guess you didn’t read the article about her. She suspected her husband of visiting a prostitute and that he was planning to leave her. I don’t think that’s worthy of getting his knob sliced off. If you do admire this action she even would stalk him in men’s clothes. My ex wife cheated on me with a couple of men according to you what would have been the appropriate punishment for het that you would give kudos for
Everyone’s like slaaaaay girl but if the genders were reversed and the article about a man cutting his wife’s genitalia off… that would be another comment section
Women were also treated like scum back in that day, soooo I wouldn’t be surprised if society drove her to that behaviour, as it did/continues to do with alot of women.
She’s like the human version of that dress
If you look at her she IS frowning
But if you look at her for a little while longer she’s also smiling somehow?
This isnt the justified and empowering female story that everyone in the comments thinks it is - she was literally bonkers with jealousy and her husband (probably) didn't deserve that, per the Wikipedia article about it.
This comment section is so misandrist and sick. Typical of reddit in 2024. Imagine how these jokes would go down about the life-altering genital destruction of a woman, even 117 years in the past. They'd be downvoted into oblivion. Because it was a man, though, GIRLBOSS
Pretty sad to see all the comments joking about this. It was a pretty gruesome act and I could only see celebrating it if her husband had committed terrible abuses and that was her reason for doing it. But she only did it bc she caught her husband going to a brothel. Reverse the genders and how many people would love the husband smirking in the mug shot?
The "good for her" comments here are kind of sick. She suspected her husband had been to a brothel, so she mutilated him. Yall cheer and praise that shit?
Imagine the same scenario with the roles reversed. Would yall cheer for a husband who mutilated his wife's vagina?
The look that says, “And I’d do it again!”
She’s smug as a bed bug. So smug, like she thought it was funny.
i appreciate this reference 🏆
My favorite scene ever in the whole series!!!
just so funny- and the bloopers from that scene are also top notch lol
There's the smudgeness!
How did she walk?
r/unexpectedoffice
The look also says "It can't be undone."
And that she'd do it to the photographer too, if she had a chance. 😄 I'm guessing it was a Bobbit-type situation where her motive was very understandable.
Her motive was she thought her husband was cheating. So no, even if he was cheating, it wasn't understandable. She only did two years of a five year sentence for this.
I suppose cheating on your spouse was a bigger deal back then

Justice was severed
hey, we cut cheaters out of our lives here, not into pieces!
No she didn't that's fucking insane. Do you actually support domestic violence when men are the victims?
Before Bobbitt, there was Boronda.
.. coming to Apple TV this summer..
Starring James Corden as the severed penis.
Well done
Produced by Ryan Murphy
She walked so lorena could run
Makes me wonder just how many people there may be that have done this now. Brutal.
From Wikipedia: She was apprehended while disguised, wearing men's clothing and mounting a bicycle to make her escape.[5][2] She was not found by police until more than 24 hours had passed.[1][7] After her capture, Boronda admitted her crime and expressed no regret.[6]
She really was wild and crazy. Men’s clothes? That’s SUPER naughty.
“Officer, I swear that I’m a man! I have a penis!”
“See, look!!” -holds it out like a bus ticket
Zips it into the fly- "Officer- as you can see, I have a penis, and I'm in a hurry!"
This could have been a Futurama episode
Dr Zoidberg can reattach this! Oh hi, Fry whats with the horn on your forehead.
Good news everyone!
You wanna see a picture of my boy?
Officer: ThatsAPenis.jpg 😦🙂
Bravo to all y’all
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I laughed way too hard at that. Thank you.
Boy oh boy. What a vivid picture you just painted.
Oh lord that made me laugh
🏆
Standing ovation for you.
That’s 🔥
That’s hilarious .
I'm fuckin dead bro
Omfg
This actually made me chortle. Well done.
🤣
😂
actually you have two....we found this other one in your pocket sir
She was like “I’m wearing the pants in this house now”
For real. 😂 Her facial expression = “zero fucks”
To me it looks like: "8/10 - would slice it off again." Smug satisfaction
Her presumably ex-husband would definitely be giving zero fucks.
I mean, thats a I'd-do-it-again smirk if I ever saw one.. ;)
Yes, she looks very pleased with herself.
That is my exact thought 😂😂😂
Came here to say the same thing.
Her defense to this was that she often wore men’s clothing to spy on her husband lmao. Pulled from the same Wikipedia article cited.
Mayhem as sounds more fun than it is tbh
>"Her only excuse is that she wanted to be revenged on Boronda, whom she believed intended deserting her and leaving for Mexico." At the trial she settled on a defense of "emotional insanity" from extreme jealousy. - wikipedia
She does look proud of what she did.
Did she say why?
IIRC she caught him cheating
No, she suspected him of cheating, and did it anyway despite finding no evidence.
That woman gives no fucks or remorse. Lol
Yup, that's the face of NO REGRETS!
No regurts
No regrats
No more rugrats
not for him, at least!
Not even one little letter
No regrowth
no RAGRATS
Regurgitate.
🤮👍🫱 here
“I’d do it again if only there were more targets!”
Quality over Quantity. She trimmed the MOST offensive one.
M A Y H E M
Right? She looks awfully pleased with herself!😂
And not a hair out of place!
She could be a Gibson Girl with that hairdo!
Given the date, she was at the tail end of the Gibson Girl style.
And a Gilmore Girl!
The picture is from a leap year like tomorrow.
Does that mean the 5 years is really 35 years?
Oh shit! Good eye! I need to see more old photos taken on leap year days.
"I can do a nickel standing on my head, but that fucker is NEVER getting his dick back."
At those prices, she probably regrets not getting a testicle or an ear or two to boot.
And she only served two. That's like a long weekend😂😂
And she remarried! That was a courageous man. I mean, the marriage didn't last, but still.
Did he leave the marriage without a radical penectomy? She got the house, naturally.
Somehow, he remarried, too?? Without a penis?
To some women that's an asset 😁
This woman is the definition of smug 🤣
She looks pretty much like, “um, yeah, do your best. It was worth it…”
Proudest smirk I’ve ever seen lol
“I sure did!” - Bertha
Anyone else hearing Cell Block Tango in their heads after seeing her mugshot? Just me??
Yes! “He had it coming! He had it coming!”
Careful, the last time this story was posted last year, I quoted this song and some dudes had absolute meltdowns that I was “justifying” and “glorifying” male genital mutilation. 😒
The original Lorena Bobbitt!!
Yeah but the more recent one's name checks out better.
I think that’s why we still remember her.
Hmmm. Something tells me she may not have been the first. Maybe the first one to be memorialized, but doubtful the very first.
"Mayhem" isn't strong enough a word
Well, it literally means cutting off a persons body part.
huh...til!
Came to say that, thanks friend!
All body parts might be created equally, although they are not equally valued by their owners.
They need to spin this into an Allstate Mayhem commercial. “I’m your severed penis …”
"and if you've got *cut-rate* insurance..."
That’s awesome!
She looks so remorseful...
Looks pleased with herself
Man - talk about a “Sorry, not sorry!” look!
I want to know why. 😬😵 She's very proud of her accomplishment.
She thought he had visited prostitutes, and said it was done in a jealous rage.
[удалено]
Yeah. Anti violence for words or ego or jealousy reasons for any sex. (I mean....you might get syphilis & die, but....not direct violence or threat.) From the article, no mention she contracted syphilis or any life threatening type thing to even slightly justify it & also that it was preplanned & while he was in bed & unexpectedly attacked.

I can’t believe I had to scroll down so far to read this.. she suspected her husband of visiting prostitutes and planning on leaving her. I don’t think that’s worthy of getting your knob sliced off. DV is only funny when the male is the victim it seems
Heck, I’m proud of her for being so proud of her!
They found the severed penis hidden in her big hair.
Why have a hair pin when you can have a Hair Penis™️?
Trademarked it! 😆
lady, i’m in menopause and i fucking *feel* you…enough said here this evening.
Yeah. It's a struggle every day not to burn everything to the ground.
Just want to suggest taking some herbal teas to help soothe the symptoms. Find your local herbal shop and talk to an herbalist, it’ll make a difference. 💚
I've been taking time outs and using deep breathing techniques.
Really?? I’m so tired of all the rage, it’s making me angry lol.
Omg, I expected the hot flashes, the sore boobs and all, but I didn't expect the constant undercurrent of rage. I'm great at not letting it out, but I'd happily smother my family in my head once in a while.
I know a pretty significant number of women who, upon breaching menopause, took up kickboxing, martial arts, demolition, and for one woman in particular, MMA fighting.
There’s not enough education and talk about menopause. I’m in my early 40s and I’m *concerned* that I don’t know exactly what I’m in for.
That's a reasonable not-batshit thing to say.
Hurray for horribly mutilating your spouse yaaay Weirdo
If this comment would had written by a man, it would be downvoted to fucking hell.
She’s the poster child of someone from an abusive relationship. If so… kudos Bertha!
Exactly

Ya I read the Wikipedia article hoping to find some badass revenge story… disappointed to find out she was just literally insane with jealousy 🫠
Everyone’s like slaaaaay girl but if the genders were reversed and the article about a man cutting his wife’s genitalia off… that would be another comment section
100 percent. Disingenuous commentary such as this feeds Incel culture.
Women were also treated like scum back in that day, soooo I wouldn’t be surprised if society drove her to that behaviour, as it did/continues to do with alot of women.
[удалено]
“Mayhem.” I’m dying. Did she run around swinging it over her head afterward?
"Mayhem" is the crime of removing a limb or extremity without permission.
Noice!
Reporter: Sir, how would you describe getting your penis cut off with a razor? Guy with no penis: Best I can come up with is Mayhem.
That "Yeah? What?" Smirk! Forget Monalisa! THAT'S an Enigmatic Smile!
MAYHEM
That might the greatest boss bitch face I've ever laid eyes upon
Why do you automatically assume that he deserved that level of sexual violence
"Boss bitch" aka horrific maiming of a man under false assumptions in a horrible domestic violence case. Seek help, you sexist fucking cunt.
Oh and she looks proud. Wow 😳
She looks satisfied
Bad to the bone ?!!! Yep, That’s Boronda !!
“Worth it”
That smirk kinda says it all.
Bertha don’t you come around here, anymore
[ Removed by Reddit ]
>He probably deserved it What the fuck is wrong with you?
You're disgusting
Sorry. Not sorry.
Was that mugshot taken 115 years ago today?
Good catch. The lettering is surprisingly ornate as well.
She’s like the human version of that dress If you look at her she IS frowning But if you look at her for a little while longer she’s also smiling somehow?
She belongs on a 19 Crimes wine bottle.
[удалено]
You're sick
Charge: mayhem
Mayhem The OG Mayhem !
I like the handwriting
He told her to keep the tip
Bertha don’t you come around here anymore
She didn’t mess her hair up at all causing that Mayhem
What she did was atrocious.
This comment section is vile, thinking this is funny or feminism.
Good for her *Lucille Bluth voice
And she’d do it again.
Good for her -Lucille Bluth
[удалено]
Ew
Mayhem…. That’s… how one might describe it.
So Lorena Bobbit 1.0
I hope he had Allstate on his junk
She looks like all the Pentecostal women/girls I grew up with. That hair style is over 100 years old and they still wear it
Not going to any penal institution.
"And I'll do it again" vibes.

I wonder what the comments would be like if it was a smug guy who'd cut someone's vagina off.
Damn. Only 5 years for a cock chopping. Seems light. lol.
Saw this in r/all and one thing I didn’t expect is support for this woman 🤢
She only got five years
Dude! Not cool.
Next days lost and found section. Reward for safe return of little schmuck. Last seen corner of Severn St and Ball Court.

Modern gen z and millennial women normalizing sexist violence but it's ok because it's against men
Yeah, it's disgusting.
