'She Said She Would Cut Off My Penis'

A former Bristol Township woman will be going to trial on charges she tried to kill her ex-husband and mother-in-law

It sounded like a scene from a horror movie as Stanislav Kushnirov recalled Wednesday in district court how his 58-year-old ex-wife, Barbara Kushnirov, used a kitchen knife to try to stab through the door and into the Bristol Township bedroom where the man and his mother had taken shelter. The man testified at Barbara's preliminary hearing that he believed his ex-wife was trying to kill his elderly mother on the evening of Nov. 17, 2012. He also told the court that his ex-wife called his mother an “evil woman” and threatened to cut off his penis. “She said she would cut off my penis,” he said. He added that she told him she would wait until he was asleep before castrating him. During the height of the 45 minute ordeal, Stanislav said …

There are things that are illegal for a reason. If you are not supposed to drink and drive, smoke marijuana, or take pills that are not perscribed to you... Why do you do it? Because you are ignorant, selfish, and do not give a damn for anyone but yourself. These are not charactaristics of an individual who "puts others before herself". Do not defend someone who broke the law, then broke traffic …   more ›

There have been too many tragic accidents with pedestrians. I know its hard for people today to fund a car and many people have to walk to stores and work but walking in a lane of traffic or crossing where there is no traffic light is just too dangerous. Its a tragedy for the injured and the driver. Additionally people walking at night are usually wearing dark clothing.   more ›
