A woman in Brisbane, Australia stabbed her husband to death because she caught him calling a phone sex hotline. She woke up at 2am and saw her husband on the phone.

Amanda Jane Griffin was told by her husband that he was only calling a friend, but upon redialling the number she realised it was a 1900 call.

The judge remanded Griffin in custody until a psychiatric report could be completed before sentencing.

She had every right to do so. If my other was calling some sex number, I probably wouldn't stab them, but I'd leave them or kick them out.

Oh, please, morally it's no different than watching porn. It's not like the guy was banging a hooker.

I think it's different. With phone sex, you are an active participant. You are engaging with another person, and paying for the privilege. I'd be pissed if my husband did it, just because he'd be paying money for something I'd have done for free!

That's debatable; there's certainly no emotional involvement, no physical contact, and the person at the other end of the line is probably a little old lady. :D Is it really any different than paying for a Playboy subscription, or a live streaming porn feed?

And I'd hazard a guess that the poor dead bastard in question's wife wasn't doing it, free or otherwise, so what's he to do?

I'm a little surprised at some of the posts here. Are people trying to justify what the wife did? I don't think we should lose sight of the fact that the husband is dead. Regardless of what he was doing, he didn't deserve to get killed. Crimes of passion seldom make sense, but I find it hard to sympathize with the woman. I might be wrong, but if it were the other way around, where the husband stabbed his wife for having phone sex, I'm willing to bet the husband would be villified by the media and the general public. But because it's the woman who stabs the man, it becomes the butt end of a Leno joke.

i dont think its that differant... i mean maybe if his wife shed a few pounds, he'd still be physically attracted to her... guys will be guys.

You say for free but in today's day and age, nothing comes from a woman for free.

maybe if the ***** wasn't asleep and instead giving him some oral pleasure he wouldn't need to engage in alternative oral sex.

Sure she shouldn't have killed him, but he's a coward for cheating on his wife. Death is extreme, but he learned a valuble lesson, didn't he?

I do not question your abilities or feminine wiles but men like variety and getting married pretty much puts an end to this potential.

Most Men respect their wives a great deal and wives in turn don't want to turn on the passion to seem like a slut in front of their husbands and so you have other facilites like phone sex where the guy can get derogatory with out feelings of guilt which he and his wife might have the next morning when they exchange glances were they to venture down this road with the pretty standard prude and prissy state of mind and morals society has imposed on the majority of us.

If you and your partner are able to get over it though there can be lots of fun between you 2 and lots of savings.

Some guys may be turned on by the thrill of actually paying hard cash for it instead of the other indirect ways he pays for it within the marriage ;)

So it's like guys who go out and spend $20 for a lap dance with someone who they have or will not have any intimate contat with in future. He is severely restricted in that he doesn't get to touch the normal things guys like to when intimate and he doesn't achieve any climax(Most men).

I understand why you as well as many women will be cross about paying for it though when in your minds he can get more at home and at a bargain too, as some guys may take several hours to make that $20 while the dancer only takes 5 minutes and so 99% of the benefits go to her when this money could have been better spent on the kids or you who is always there for him unlike the stripper or phone sex gal.

That's gratitude for you eh?

Phone sex is not cheating, for one. Secondly, how could he "learn a valuable lesson" while DEAD?

Even in light of the stiff competition around this place, I'd have to agree with your choice.

That was terrible. :twisted:

Actually, I'd say cheating on a psychopath was pretty ballsy of him.

If you kill 'em, they don't learn nothin'.

I never said that.
The reason for the death penalty is a deterrant, and to safeguard society from violent criminals who cannot be rehabilitated, and those who commit especially heinous crimes.

Hmmm....well I though you meant it unqualified like....

I believe there are psychiatric tests that can determine this..
I don't know any of the details, though.. I'm no shrink.

the tests may reveal the state of mind of the person at the time of the test - but how can any test predict what a person will be like 5 or 10 or 20 years down the road?
