BOISE, Idaho Feb 8, 2005 — A 16-year-old girl was allegedly tied up and scalped with a 4-inch knife in what police say may have been an act of revenge by another woman.
The girl, who had a punk-style mohawk haircut before the attack, is recovering at home. Doctors could not reattach her scalp, which was found near a hot spring.
Police searched for Marianne Dahle, 26, who disappeared after the Jan. 18 attack at Kirkham Hot Springs, about 70 miles from Boise.
"When I say this gal was scalped, she was truly scalped," said Chief Deputy Bill Braddock. "The top of her head, her hair, was completely cut off."
Dahle and the victim, whose name was not released, were longtime acquaintances and hung out with a punk clique, he said.
"The motive, as near as we've been told by witnesses, was retaliation for acting in a way that the adult perceived as being offensive to women as a gender," Braddock said. "According to their creed, if you disrespect women you are not allowed to wear a mohawk."

"According to their creed, if you disrespect women you are not allowed to wear a mohawk."A true Zen saying and words to live by. I hear that the creed also states that if you disrespect wimmin you are not allowed to wear muttonchops either. Tough creed they got.

When scalping girls with mohawks are outlawed, only really angry outlaw lesbians will scalp girls with mohawks.

Just out of sick curiosity: What happens to your head in such a case, if they can't reattach the scalp? Do you end up with what is essentially the world's worst facelift? Do they just put a metal plate in there and coax the skin to grow over it?

Back in elementary school, I was told that Indians wore their hair in the Mohawk style, in part, because you could survive being scalped with one.
To: holymoly
Maybe she should have worn this hairstyle instead of a Mohawk

I would imagine that extensive reconstructive surgery would be needed. It really depends if she was scalped down to the bone or a thin layer of muscle was left. If she was scalped down to the bone, she may have severe problems the rest of her life, which may end up being quite short.

Ping! ...not directly family rights (fathers' rights) news but related.
Oh, what our country is coming to... Here's some news of the ordinarily weird and extraordinarily extreme within our opposition. Initiations of violence come from anyone who wants to initiate violence--not from all big, strong men.

Wow. Isn't scalping a woman pretty disrepectful too?
And if you can't re-attach the scalp, is the person disfigured for life?

Person disfigured for life? Not if they can find a way for the taxpayers to pay for a "makeover".
