Cops: Woman Beat Husband Over Flatulence(Victim was kicked, elbowed for passing gas while in bed)
The Smoking Gun ^ | December 22, 2015

DECEMBER 22--Angered by her husband’s repeated farting in bed, a Florida woman allegedly elbowed, kicked, and scratched her spouse, according to police who arrested her for battery.

Dawn Meikle, 55, is facing a misdemeanor charge following a 3:20 AM confrontation in the Port St. Lucie home she shares with her husband Donald.

As detailed in a December 11 arrest affidavit, Donald told cops that “while he was lying in bed he passed gas,” which prompted Dawn to begin “elbowing him on his arm.”

When Donald’s flatulence continued, “Dawn began kicking him and eventually kicked him out of their bed,” police noted. Donald said that he eventually returned to bed, where he “passed gas again.” Not surprisingly, “Dawn began elbowing and kicking him again.”

Donald said that he subsequently sought to restrain his wife, who repeatedly scratched him across his chest. Cops reported that Donald had four or five six-inch scratches on his chest, and that his t-shirt was ripped in three places.

During police questioning, Dawn said that she had “asked Donald several times to stop passing gas in their bed.” But when his flatulence persisted, Dawn admitted, she “began elbowing and kicking him.” Dawn suffered a bloody lip in the fracas, but she told police that Donald “was restraining me and somehow my lip got split open.”

Dawn also told cops that while she was in the bathroom calling 911, she “sprayed pepper spray in the air to keep Donald out of the restroom.”

Pictured above, Dawn was booked into the county jail on the battery charge. Free on bond, she is scheduled for a December 28 arraignment on the misdemeanor count. (2 pages)

No doubt, alcohol played a role.

My uncle used to say my aunt farted so much at night, the blankets would rise off the bed.

“I get elbowed, kicked and occasionally tickled every night to stop my snoring.”

Try Breathe Strips. They allow my wife to sleep through the night and me to have fewer bruises.

It’s cheaper and easier to stop this issue .. just go to the nearest CVS or Wallgreens and purchase a good probiotic. That can and should take care of the problem.

Can't take an elbow from his wife without calling the cops?

You need to get out more.

Men are arrested jailed, caged and thrown into this corrupt justice system where they're looted and threatened, because a women shows them a red mark on their arm. No joke.

The pepper spray will hang around for a while.

One of the women in my family has described her husband as: “The wind beneath my sheets!” :)

I used to work with a big gal. When she needed to fart in bed, she’d pull the covers up over her husband’s face. He was a saint.

After reading this article all I can think of is ‘No Sh!t”.

Is a rear-end that farts continuosly considered a semi automatic weapon? Should it be banned?
