Woman arrested for trying to cut Husband's head off with Power saw

A Washinghton woman has been arrested for trying to cut her sleeping husband’s neck and shoulder with a power saw.
“It was you, it was you, you tried to cut my head off. You’re going to jail.”
Officers heard the man shouting when they arrived at the Everett home Friday night, according to a police affidavit.
The woman, 43, told cops she was holding the Sawzall power tool because an intruder had escaped out of her daughter’s window, according to the Daily Herald.

Officers did not believe her account after checking the girl’s room and finding it was fitted with a child lock and could not open more than a few inches.
“There was no evidence there was an intruder,” Everett police Sgt. Robert Goetz said.
The wife was arrested for first-degree domestic violence assault and a judge set bail at $250,000 Monday in Everett District Court.
The husband, 36, said he woke up to find a power tool on his neck, which was switched on.
He was treated in hospital for cuts to his neck and shoulder, according to reports. The victim said it was dark when he first woke but witnessed his wife holding the power saw as soon as he turned the light on. He also told police he was cut with a hatchet.
Officers saw smeared blood on the woman’s clothes, blood was splattered on the carpet and walls inside the family home and also on a saw found on the bedroom floor, the Daily Herald reported. A hatchet in the kitchen was wet and appeared to have been freshly washed, court records state
