A Florida woman was charged with murdering her husband by allegedly stabbing him more than 140 times inside the kitchen of their home, a report said.
The victim, Melvin Weller, 62, was found by his 41-year-old stepson lying in a pool of blood in his Palm Springs residence on Feb. 11, according to a police report obtained by WPTV.
The stepson called the police who later found multiple knives and a meat cleaver in the sink.
Weller’s wife, Joan Burke, 61, was lying in her bed and did not say a word when police showed up.
She was hospitalized and later arrested following an investigation into the deadly stabbing.
An autopsy determined Weller was stabbed over 140 times. He also suffered a skull fracture after being pummeled in the head with a meat cleaver.
Burke is being held without bond on a first degree murder charge.

It must have taken quite a while to stab him 140 times. Did she take breaks, just to catch her breath? I hope they don’t let that thing anywhere near even a thumb tac for the rest of her life.
Well 139 wouldn’t be even and 141 was just too many!
My first thought exactly. That dude been runnin’ around on her, she found out after one time too many and decided she’d had enough.
I wonder when BLM gonna bail her out.
There’s a really funny South Park episode about that.
That is a valid point.
She’ll plead it was side effect of vax that made her crazy.
When she’s found not guilty, vax mandates will be dropped for all married black women.
What do people expect?
They took her off the box of my favorite pancake mix and condemned her to obscurity...
Naturally there are unintended consequences...
Poor sweet lady...
So maybe swiped from Europe 20,000 years ago.
The Florida Palm Springs is not like the CA Palm Springs. I lived there 40 years ago, and it was working/middle class back then. I suspect it has ungentrified in the subsequent decades.
Built up years of rage.
She looks like she has the heft to do it all at once.
Surprising. Except for the psycho eyes, she looks very sweet
An argument against marriage in the black community.
Why the bail?
Did she take breaks, just to catch her breath?

They found her in bed afterwards. I guess she was exhausted from all that stabbing.
She asked him, “Do I look fat in this dress?” And then it all went wrong...
That’s what he gets for not playing dead!
