Super glue assault spawns civil suit
Pittsburgh Post-Gazette ^ | 11-03-2005 | Rebekah Scott

"Male bonding" is taking on new meaning in Westmoreland County this week, where a Murrysville woman is on trial for using Super Glue to stick it to her ex-boyfriend.

Court papers say Kenneth Slaby of Pittsburgh and Gail O'Toole of Murrysville dated through most of 1999, but the couple broke up just before Christmas.

Mr. Slaby found another love interest, but Ms. O'Toole continued to phone, the lawsuit says. The pair resumed dating in early May 2000.

The evening of May 7 Mr. Slaby took a nap at Ms. O'Toole's home.

He woke "to a strong burning sensation" in his genital area and found red and blue nail polish poured in his hair, the suit says. Glue had been used on his private parts and an unflattering comment had been painted in nail polish on his back.

The suit says Ms. O'Toole took away the man's keys and clothing and told him she'd planned the attack since their breakup months earlier.

Mr. Slaby walked about a mile to a Sheetz convenience store, where he met a Murrysville police officer. He was taken to Forbes Regional Hospital for treatment.

In June 2000 Ms. O'Toole pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault and served six months' probation.

Mr. Slaby filed the civil suit the following September, alleging battery, assault, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Mr. Slaby wants at least $30,000 in damages for each of the three counts. Opening arguments are expected today before Judge Gary Caruso.

Especially when you think about how they are going to have to remove the crazy glue from his nether-regions.

Sometimes, if you rub it - it goes away.

Um, I think it depends how much glue she used.

Took a nap...? He went there to hit it, knowing he had cheated on her. To then fall asleep was just plain old stupidity.
