Woman accused of threatening man with knife thought they were going to have a threesome

A 44-year-old Friendship woman was arrested on Tuesday night after she was accused of threatening a man with a knife.



Valerie L. Nile made her initial court appearance on Wednesday afternoon in Rockland District Court, Maine, on charges of criminal threatening and terrorizing.

According to an affidavit filed by the Knox County Sheriff’s Office, Friendship man, Edward Sabatino, 56, called 911 to report that an intoxicated woman was at his home and had threatened to stab him. Sabatino told police that Nile had picked up a large kitchen knife and then put two smaller knives in her socks and threatened him. He told police that he was in fear for his life.



Another woman, Shanna Chickering, 30, and two small children were also at the residence during the incident. Nile denied she had threatened Sabatino. She told the officer that she was going to have a threesome with Chickering and Sabatino. Nile was booked into the Knox County jail, where she is being held in lieu of $250 bail.
