The shocking events surrounding their tumultuous relationship and the infamous incident that led to national headlines are explored in detail. We unravel the complexities of their marriage and the dramatic night that changed their lives forever. We begin by setting the scene, introducing Lorena and John Bobbitt as a young couple whose relationship quickly spiraled into a whirlwind of domestic turmoil and abuse. Listeners will hear about the struggles Lorena faced, including her claims of ongoing abuse and the emotional toll it took on her. This background provides critical context for understanding the explosive event that would thrust them into the public eye. The heart of the episode examines the night of June 23, 1993, when Lorena Bobbitt made headlines for severing her husband's penis with a kitchen knife. We delve into the immediate aftermath, the frantic search for John's missing member, and the subsequent surgeries that shocked and fascinated the world.  As the story progresses, we explore the legal battles that ensued. Lorena's trial for malicious wounding and John's trial for marital sexual assault are dissected.  Finally, we reflect on the long-term impact of the Bobbitt case. Listeners will learn about Lorena and John's lives after the trials, their attempts to move forward, and the cultural legacy of their story.

Practice tips: (1) focus cross-examination on the specific instructions (verbal or written) being given by the supervisory officer prior to the checkpoint commencing; (2) sequester officers when challenging a checkpoint case. REASONABLE SUSPICION State v. Abernathy, 2022 NCCOA 607 (N.C. App. 2022) (unpublished) Holding: Reasonable suspicion exists to stop a driver travelling under the speed limit in the left lane for a prolonged period causing other vehicles on the highway to pass in the right lane. State v. Barstow, 2022 NCCOA 368 (N.C. App 2022) (unpublished) Holding: An officer dispatched to investigate a domestic dispute has reasonable suspicion to stop a vehicle matching the color, make, and model of the one connected to the domestic dispute leaving the subdivision where the domestic dispute occurred. State v. Bolick, 2022 NCCOA 875 (N.C. App 2022) (unpublished) Holding: Reasonable suspicion to stop exists based on an anonymous tip where the 911 caller has face-to-face interaction with the Defendant, smells an odor of alcohol, was tailgated by Defendant, gave the make, model, and license plate of Defendant's vehicle, and told the dispatcher which direction the vehicle was travelling. Practice tip: The Court goes through a lengthy analysis of traffic stops based on an anonymous tip. If you have an anonymous tip case be prepared to distinguish Bolick from your case. State v. Duncan, 2023 NCCOA 5 (N.C. App. 2023) Holding: Reasonable suspicions exists if an officer believes that a driver has a medically cancelled license. State v. Dyer, 2022 NCCOA 880 (N.C. App. 2022) (unpublished) Holding: No reasonable suspicion exists when a stop is based on Defendant's failure to use a turn signal if no other vehicle will be affected by Defendant's turn. EXPERT TESTIMONY State v. Lewis, 2022 NCCOA 887 (N.C. App. 2022) (unpublished) Holding: Based on the plain language of N.C. Gen. Stat. § 8C-1, Rule 702(a1)(2), an officer who does not hold a currentcertification as a drug recognition expert (DRE) cannot testify that Defendant was under the influence of one or more impairing substances, or the drug category of such impairing substances. [The trial court erred in allowing such testimony, but the Court of Appeals found in this case the error was not prejudicial.] Practice tip: With the rise of ARIDE officers don't let the state get around the rigid requirements of Rule 702. The opinion is either lay or expert opinion and lay opinion is not allowed in this arena. RIGHT TO SILENCE State v. Dunn, 2022 NCCOA 818 (N.C. App. 2022) (unpublished) Holding: Despite erroneous admission of statements into evidence regarding Defendant's refusal to answer questions after being advised of his Miranda rights, the error was harmless. BLOOD DRAW State v. Bobbitt, No. COA22-510 (N.C. App. 2023) (unpublished) Holding: Medical reports or records created for treatment purposes are not testimonial in nature and as such do not implicate the requirements of the Confrontation Clause. State v. Cannon, No. COA22-572 (N.C. App. 2023) Facts: Defendant was involved in a head on collision with another vehicle killing the driver. Investigating officers found beer cans and an aerosol can of “ultra Duster” in Defendant's vehicle. Officers noticed an odor of alcohol on Defendant, slurred speech and glassy eyes. About two hours after the accident, Defendant's blood was taken at the hospital by law enforcement. At the time of the blood draw, no warrant had been issued and no implied consent had been given under N.C.G.S. § 20-16.2. Holding: Based on the time it took to investigate an accident involving a fatality, the time to transport the Defendant to the hospital, the lack of police assistance for the investigating officers, and the extra time it would have taken to prepare and submit a search warrant, exigent circumstances existed to justify a warrantless search of Defendant's blood. Practice tip: In distinguishing Cannon, focus on the (1) the fatality investigation; (2) lack of police assistance; and (3) drug impairment case. Cf. State v. Romano, 369 N.C. 678 (N.C. 2017). SUFFICIENCY OF EVIDENCE State v. Rouse, 2022 NCCOA 496 (N.C. App. 2022) Holding: Sufficient circumstantial evidence of driving was presented in this case by the State to avoid a Motion to Dismiss. SENTENCING State v. Adams, 2022 NCCOA 845 (N.C. App. 2022) Holding: N.C.G.S. § 20-179(r) does not authorize a judge to mandate a transfer from supervised to unsupervised probation on the passage of a certain amount of time. Practice tip: On a level 3, 4 or 5 sentence make sure that the judge is following the mandates of N.C.G.S. § 20-179(r) in requiring supervised versus unsupervised probation. State v. King, No. COA22-469 (N.C. App. 2023) Holding: N.C.G.S. § 20-179(a2)(2) requires a jury to decide whether aggravating factors exist.   Practice tip: There appears to be grounds for an argument based on this holding that the statutory framework providing that prior convictions under 20-179(c) fall within the purview of the judge vs. the jury is not permissible and a jury should decide. (One aggravating factor found by the superior court judge in this case was a prior conviction of death by motor vehicle). DWLR IMPAIRED State v. Rabas, No. COA22-616 (N.C. App. 2023) (unpublished) Facts: Defendant was charged with DWI. Immediately upon release, defendant went back to his car and drove away. He was stopped again and charged with a second DWI and DWLR impaired. Holding: Defendant possessed actual and constructive knowledge that his license was revoked creating sufficient evidence for conviction of DWLR impaired.

It's been thirty years since John Bobbitt got his dick cut off, does it seem like it's been that long? Open Phones brought Erica, who saw a pic of Bobbitt after the accident from the court room during the trial while she visited an exhibit way back when Headlines with the median age for this country now at 39 years old

Lorena Bobbitt cut off her husband John Wayne Bobbitt's penis with a kitchen knife while he was asleep in their apartment in Manassas, Virginia on 23rd June, 1993. After a nine-hour surgery, Bobbitt's penis was successfully reattached - and the case became an international news sensation. The 24 year-old manicurist was charged with malicious wounding and faced up to 20 years in prison if convicted. But in court she showed that her then-husband had repeatedly sexually and physically abused her and was found Not Guilty, on the basis of temporary insanity. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how John's penis was discovered and transported after amputation; explain why Virginia's marital abuse laws were insufficient to cover the scope of the Bobbitt's relationship; and consider one of the weirdest offers to ever come from Playboy…   CONTENT WARNING: rape, domestic violence, gore.

After High School we all go our seperate ways. Some of us go to college, some go to the military, and in some cases a few of us make up a barely believable story so thousands of people donate money in the hopes of helping a homeless man with a heart of gold who didn't actually do what people believe he did.Back in 2017 the world was introduced to the story of Katie McClure, her boyfriend Mark D'Amico, and said homeless man, our boy Johnny Bobbitt Jr. Bobbitt gave Katie his last $20 for gas when he saw that she was stranded on the side of I-95. It didn't take long for the scheme to unravel, but not after the trio made away with $400k in GoFundMe donations. Once the truth was out the world was shocked.Not as shocked as Nanner and I, because we went to High School with Katie McClure. Hear what we think of our former classmates shady plot and how the Fritz Boyz would have dealt with old Johnny Bobbitt (aka The Weak Link).

Alex Meacham interviews Tony Bobbitt LIVE at Mio's! 

Michael J. Bobbitt is the executive director of the Massachusetts Cultural Council, working to elevate cultural life across the state with an emphasis on improving arts education, promoting diversity, and encouraging excellence in the Arts, Humanities, and Sciences. In our conversation, Michael shares that he is actually moving away from language like “Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion” because it is inadequate to describe our collective task at hand. Instead, he is moving towards language like “anti-oppression” and “anti-supremacy.” He speaks to what might be possible if we can fully step into the promises of that language.This conversation dances between creative exploration and pragmatic realities. Michael threads these two poles together so skillfully because he is himself a remarkably accomplished artist and leader. As former Artistic Director of the New Repertory Theater, and award-winning director of dozens of plays. And as a leader, he has worked tirelessly to elevate the experience of artists around the country.Michael is standing for a world in which people of all identities who feel called into the artistry and culture-making work of creating new futures can answer that call. Together, we investigate what might be possible if we stop hiding from the systems of oppression that have been built over centuries. Instead, we can face them with compassion and work to dissolve them. In so doing, we could actually unleash our full creative potential as a species and build something truly beautiful together.Get Connected:The Wonder Dome Newsletter http://bit.ly/3dTfdPi​Follow Andy on Twitter http://twitter.com/cahillaguerilla​Like us on Facebook http://facebook.com/mindfulcreative.coachmassculturalcouncil.orgnewrep.orgConnect with Michael:MichaelBobbitt.comfacebook.com/michael.j.bobbittinstagram.com/michaeljamesbobbittlinkedin.com/in/michaeljbobbitttwitter.com/mbobbitt
