A Boca Raton woman had been accused of stabbing her husband to death with a cane featuring a deadly blade after an argument over a stereo.
The Boca Raton Police Department (BRPD) stated that on Monday at around 10:27 a.m. they received a 911 call after T T, 58, told her neighbor that her husband fell on top of a knife.
When Boca Raton Fire Rescue arrived on the scene in the 3300 block of Jaywood Terrace they reported finding T’s husband inside the home suffering from a serious torso wound.
While being treated at a nearby hospital, T’s husband stated “The b**** stabbed me,” and continued to say his wife tried to kill him, prompting BRPD to launch a criminal investigation.
Detectives interviewed T further after learning that information to which she explained that a heated argument over a sound system stereo had led to a physical altercation between the couple.
She described a struggle over a wooden cane, stating that in the heat of the moment, she grabbed a nearby brass cane that had a pointed tip. T admitted she might have injured Stanley by striking him with it.
A search warrant was executed at their apartment, leading to a detailed examination of the brass cane. Investigators discovered that the cane had a grip that could be unscrewed, revealing a hidden blade, which appeared to have been wiped clean.
In an interview with detectives, T claimed that her husband suffered from vascular dementia, Type II diabetes, heart issues and has had numerous strokes. She also claimed that her husband had previously been violent with her.
Her husband underwent surgery at Delray Medical Center where he was later pronounced dead.
T was booked into the Palm Beach County Jail for second-degree murder.
