Well this is pretty nasty. A young woman and her boyfriend were enjoying a booze-filled night on the town until they started fighting. It culminated in the taxi ride home when Staci Hargreaves, 34, kicked her boyfriend, Gavin Taylor, 28, in the face with her stiletto. The heel went through Taylor's eye socket, fracturing it, and damaged a blood vessel in his brain.
Disgusting, right?
Judge Roger Hunt ruled that there was not a convincing case or enough evidence to prosecute Hargreaves partly because both Hargreaves and another male friend in the cab both claim that they were too drunk to remember anything that happened (can't remember, or don't want to?).
The trio spent the night drinking heavily in Huddersfield and the couple was reportedly arguing for much of the night. On their way home to Stalybridge, Cheshire, the dispute escalated and when Taylor turned around in the front seat to face her, Hargreaves planted her foot in his face.
Taylor spent a month in the hospital but has since made a 'remarkable' recovery.
I've always thought stilettos looked incredibly uncomfortable for the woman wearing them. Never considered that that pointy heal could end up impaling someone.
