A WOMAN nurse was yesterday granted self-bail when she appeared in Court, charged with unlawfully wounding her husband.
Odessa Tobin, 26, of Lot 30 Third Street, Alberttown, Georgetown, pleaded guilty to having wounded Duane Tobin, 30, who was also released on his own recognisance on a charge of assaulting her.
The couple appeared before Acting Chief Magistrate Melissa Robertson and the husband pleaded not guilty to the March 13 unlawful assault.
The wife claimed her husband hit her on her head and choked her before she picked up a knife and they had a scuffle, during which he was injured.
After her explanation, the magistrate entered a not guilty plea on her behalf, too. Then, following a discussion in front of the Bench, a probation report on the matter was ordered for April 9.
