No One Believed Me (USA)
Four Sacramento County Sheriff’s cars pulled up in front of David Woods’s house. He tried to explain to them what happened. But the lead deputy cut him off: “Yeah, that’s fine. Put your hands behind your back.” David said, “No, wait, she stabbed me ... there’s the knife. See the knife? See my neck wound? See?” “Put your hands behind your back. Turn around,” the deputy replied. “No,” David protested. “She stabbed...” The deputies drew their weapons. David’s little daughters came running out of the back bedroom pleading, “Leave Daddy alone! Mamma tried to hurt him with a knife!” One deputy, a woman, took the children in the bedroom and shut the door. David stood there, cuffed.
