A Jersey City woman has been charged with aggravated assault after she threw hot water and broccoli on her daughter after a dispute, police said.
The woman, Themyra Pridgen, 40, of Old Bergen Road in Jersey City, made her first appearance today in Central Judicial Processing court in Jersey City via video link from Hudson County jail.
----
Pridgen pleaded with the judge to give her a lower bail, but to no avail.
"My 13-year-old son needs me," Pridgen said crying. "Nobody is going to help me. I don't have that kind of money."

"My 13-year-old son needs me," Pridgen said crying. Hah! I don't think so, especially if they might get in an argument.

Maybe she thought her daughter was a vampire and thought it best to assault her with a cruciferous vegetable.

My experience with a New Jersey woman bordered on terrifying, so this broccoli thing comes as no surprise.
I would never trust a New Jersey woman with any sharp objects!

We need a five day waiting period on broccoli. If it saves just one dinner....

Too bad the daughter didn’t have a 16-Ton weight handy.
