>In Favor Of A Knifeless Kitchen, A Home With No Phones…And A Divorce.

A judge denied bail Sunday for a South Side father of five accused of repeatedly stabbing his wife after discovering she was talking to another man on the telephone.

James Rodgers, 47, of the 8000 block of South Dobson Avenue was charged with attempted first-degree murder. He is accused of dragging his wife by the neck to their kitchen Thursday night and stabbing her with a steak knife until the knife broke. Rodgers continued to stab her with a butcher knife, hit her in the head and strangled choked her, Cook County Assistant State’s Atty. Karin Swanson said Sunday in Cook County Bond Court.

When their 3-year-old son walked in, Rodgers pushed him away and ordered the boy back to his room, prosecutors said. The woman was stabbed 15 times, including in her shoulder, breasts, neck and abdomen, Swanson said. She was taken to Northwestern Memorial Hospital in serious condition and underwent emergency surgery.

A witness who was unable to stop the attack called police, and Rodgers surrendered when authorities arrived, Swanson said. According to court records, he did not remember how he got the knife but told police, “I stabbed her because I was angry with her.”

Oh. Well that explains everything. He was “angry.” Who are these entitled, insecure nuts?

  2. >You know the act of stabbing someone is a very up close and personal crime. You can shoot from across the room but a steak knife requires you to be bery bery close. I have a hard time gutting a fish or cutting up chicken so I know unless I lost it I would have a very hard time stabbing someone.Violence is never justified (understandable, but not justified) and especially when a child is involved. I tihnk even if I had lost it when the child walked in that would have brought me back but then again, when I say "hang up the G.D. phone" I usually get compliance.

  5. >Rule #356 always keep voice mail instead of an anwsering machine. The voice mail is only something you can listen to within your phone system. You never want to listen to the "i miss you, baby" messages from ya other "victims" when you just came home from a date with your current conquest.
