A wife in Florida was arrested for allegedly breaking more than one law when she reportedly hit her husband with a belt after she caught him pleasuring himself while looking at sexual content on the internet.
30-year-old Angela Davis is married to a 51-year-old man, and they reside in Summerfield.
On May 10, Davis was allegedly shocked when she walked in on her husband while he was looking at pornography on his cell phone. It was reported that the man was masturbating while viewing the content.
Davis reportedly expressed displeasure to her husband about his activities, and she asked him to allow her to see his phone.
When she looked at the display on his phone screen, Davis reported that she saw an interaction between her husband and a Reddit user. She allegedly became angry, and the couple began to argue.
According to the police report, when her husband took back possession of his cell phone he called the authorities, and the Marion County Sheriff’s Office sent officers to the home.
When they arrived, the police noted that both parties were standing in the driveway, and they were spoken to individually about what had taken place.
Davis’ husband said that when his wife caught him masturbating to pornographic material and thought he was talking to someone online, she became angry, and the situation led to a physical altercation.
He reported that she used a belt to hit him many times, and he had marks on his body that appeared as if they were made by the kind of buckle he described.
When they talked to Davis, the woman reportedly said that the reason she hit her husband with the belt was to defend herself during their fight.
Davis was taken into custody and booked into the Marion County Jail. She may face charges for felony domestic aggravated battery, and felony tampering with a witness. She was released from incarceration after posting a $1,000 bond.
