@Martimurano Do you live in their home? Everything you wrote you questioned yourself and blamed the reason why!! What makes you think he couldn't just leave her alone. There is two sides to a story. ALL WE KNOW based on this report is the Police said Tsuchida told them that she and her husband hadn’t been getting along recently. Perhaps she could have been defending herself and that to we don't know.

Well, he'll be getting along fine now, once he's recovered from his injuries, and she'll be jailed for a few years hopefully.

Why couldn't she just leave him, it's seems so baffling that she could even escalate to such a potentially lethal level as to actually insert a knife into another human-being - it seems as though societies throughout the world are becoming blase about violence, but what is causing this: horrendous bloodshed in mindless territorial wars and disputes that are ongoing, gangs and their associated revenge-killings, and stupid violent video-games and films - all of these really.
