I dunno about the latter. In many cases of spouse abuse, the wife is often financially helpless and emotionally conflicted. Many abused women blame themselves for the abuse. I fail to see how prosecuting such a person for fraudulent charges serves anyone's interests. I have no sympathy for abusers, though. “Either the husband for spousal abuse or the wife for fraudulently pressing charges against her husband.”

Everybody's welcome. I'm of the thinking that if the wife called 5-0, as the Oak Ridger article explains, then she had a reason. I'm with you, if she didn't MEAN to call the cops, sounds like she has business with us, or at least the Oak Ridger. I had this guy dismissed as a troll until he talked race, and now I'm thinking he's either a racist troll, or off his meds. Daco, this is wide open, buddy. Everybody’s welcome.

I do however think that is she is just a bitch trying to give her husband the business, by using the police to arrest him and the local paper to embarrass him in print, then yep she needs to be prosecuted. So yes, if the wife fraudulently pressed charges she is breaking the law. I have no idea what the truth is in this particular case.

Evidently those nasty ole po-leese men lied to Beverly. “Nelson’s wife told Carroll her husband pushed her into a closet and hit her on the chin with a closed fist during an argument.

Nelson’s wife and daughter, who witnessed the alleged assault, both made written statements to police.” Where exactly do you think that Majors got the "Nelson’s wife told Carroll her husband pushed her into a closet and hit her on the chin with a closed fist during an argument..." part if not from a police report? And no she didn't say a police report was filed, she said that both Mom and daughter made written statements. So what if the report was filed 48 hours after the abuse occured. Doesn't seem to me that it makes any difference. You still haven't answered the question...why did you bring up the man's skin color? Let me try this again….“Nelson’s wife told Carroll her husband pushed her into a closet and hit her on the chin with a closed fist during an argument.

I'm pretty brutal on wife beaters. Theres no excuse for it. If this guy is a wife beater, then he is scum. Police report here seems to indicate that wife accused him of beating. Not sure why she'd have done this if he hadn't done it. I don't think GAC would call the cops on me for beating on her, unless I did, and if I did, I'd expect scorn from the community.

I have not read the report and race has nothing to do with this matter but is he the only wife beater ever in Oak Ridge. This article was front page above the fold.

A lot of folks who do ugly things in their private lives were well-respected in their communities. That's pretty much the story of priest child abuse, isn't it? I don't see why being well-respected in your community excuses bad behavior. Not for Mel Gibson. Not for (allegedly) Arthur Nelson. “He is well respected in the community.”
