Woman accused of stabbing husband because he called her by another lady's name during sex

A Florida woman appeared in court Friday to face a first-degree-attempted murder charge. Christina Balazi, 39, is accused of trying to kill her husband. Police responded to the couple's home in West Palm Beach on Thursday evening. Police found a man who had been stabbed multiple times and Balazi trying to get away in her car.



Police then chased Balazi through the neighbourhood before they arrested her. Christina Balazi's huband, Christopher Balazi, told detectives the problem began when he and his wife were about to have sex. He said while they were in bed, she put a bed sheet over his face and within seconds he "felt a sharp pain to his neck followed by several more sharp pains to his neck, chest and head area."

He said he removed the sheet and saw his wife holding a kitchen knife with a handle. Christopher Balazi said he ran downstairs while his wife chased him. He was able to wrestle the knife away from her. Christopher Balazi was treated at the hospital for seven stab wounds.

When detectives asked Christina Balazi why she stabbed her husband of 10 years, she said she stabbed him because when they were having sex he called her by another woman's name. Mrs Balazi was also arrested earlier this year after she and a co-worker stole jewellery and credit cards from a woman she worked for as a maid. She pleaded guilty to those charges and was put on probation for five years.
