Laura Chavez, 60, of Santa Fe, N.M., is accused of repeatedly stabbing her boyfriend, Clyde “Butch” Smith, 48, when a family game of Monopoly went terribly awry.

Chavez began to argue with Smith while playing the board game with her 10-year-old grandson. The boy told police that Chavez accused Smith of cheating at Monopoly, and then sent the boy to bed around 11 p.m. mid-argument.

According to a probable cause statement released by police, the couple’s argument escalated until Chavez hit Smith over the head with a glass bottle, then grabbed a knife and began to cut him on his head, neck, face, arms and hand.

The hell with that. How about the guy?

Why is it always women who are judged?

Men can be ugly, too. Seriously, deadly ugly.

I need a photo to see who’s at fault, here.

My Dad always used to bail us out when we played Monopoly. He would just give us whatever money we needed to stay in the game.

I guess by your logic then you gals get hysterical when a guy acts out.

Let’s all keep joking about these things together.

She’s 60. In order for her to have any chance of being “Not Guilty” to you, you’d have to be 75 or older.
