So even if that part of the story is true (it isn't), you're still a rat fuck, Joe.

Also let's take a moment to consider how retarded that is. Joe's wife hits herself in the face with a frying pan, creating a bruise or strike mark consistent with that of a small, frail, woman hitting herself with a frying pan. Now compare that to the potential damage that a six one lummox like Joe could dish out before having to catch his breath for several minutes. Then you think about how a woman is probably going to be scared to really go all out when hitting herself and the fact that hurting ones self goes against your bodily instincts. I'd imagine that cops would pick up on that. A good defense attorney would call that into question.

But let's say she was bat shit crazy enough to really let herself have it with the frying pan. In what context would it make sense for her to lay out her master plan after Joe's arrest to dumb fuck joe himself, who very likely had his recorder poorly hidden and likely displayed many symptoms of being up to something when attempting to extract the information from her. Its downright cartoonish.

You beat your woman, joe, admit it. And depending on what it was that drove you to that point you very well may have had a perfectly good reason for it. After all, were not prudes here. Sometimes a broad needs to catch the backside of a skillet to be reminded of her place in life. Nothing to be ashamed of.
