Halverson to Hospital from Domestic Abuse

If you haven't read it by now, suspended Judge Elizabeth Halverson is in the hospital after she was assaulted by her husband. Her injuries are not life threatening.

The Review-Journal reports:

Police were called to her house late last night to respond to a domestic
violence call. Police said her husband, Edward Halverson, 49, hit her with a frying pan.

Edward "Evil Ed" Halverson was booked into the county jail on one attempted murder count, one count battery with substantial bodily harm and one count battery with a deadly weapon.
Wow. Maybe Halverson's baliff really should have accepted the judge's request that he kill her husband . What a bastard. He hit her with a frying pan. That's cruel. It's not as if she's agile and could get out of the way.

  1. Normally, I would argue that a frying pan is NOT a deadly weapon, but I bet she has some pretty big frying pans. It was probably the size of a garbage can lid.

    Also, LE, you mentioned the attempt murder charge twice in the post. As for that, had he wanted to kill her, I'm pretty sure he could have. It's all a matter of distracting her while you loop the chain around her neck.

  2. As they said over at Above the Law...

    "They always said the frying pan would be the death of her."

    And maybe we shouldn't be so fast to convict Evil Ed, "Maybe he accidentally hit her while shoveling bacon into her mouth"

  3. Judge Halverson did not deserve to be treated like this. If anyone deserves to be "murdered", it is OJ Simpson. No one has ever touched a hair on his head for what he did. Don't be so quick to put Judge Halverson down. She is a person and she deserves to live her life the way she wants to. Have some compassion and say a prayer for her.

  4. Excellent reasoning. As I understand it: someone needs to be murdered. Fair enough.
