Couch Surfer Gets Away With Murder - The C.O.C.K. Fairy

Feminism LOL: I don't even think Donelda Kay had a key to Dennis Gordon's apartment but she was acquitted as a Battered Wife when she stabbed him through the heart. This story is included in Elizabeth Sheehy's "Defending Battered Women on Trial" because the acquittal was stunning, given her circumstances. The goal of Sheehy's book is not to explain battered women honestly, but to help lawyers get more women off of murder charges when they kill a man.


The quote from Vincent Carroll's Telegraph article on the Battered Woman defense in general:
