Man Bites Off Wife's Lip After She Calls Him Short

SAN MATEO, California — A man who allegedly bit off his wife's lip after she called him short has rejected a plea offer and will instead go to trial next month, according to the Associated Press.


Police charged Akano Nzerem, 54, of South San Francisco, with felony counts of domestic violence, mayhem, false imprisonment, battery and making criminal threats. He also faces a count of child endangerment.

Prosecutors contend that Nzerem pushed aside his teenage daughter and grabbed his wife in a "bear hug" at which time he allegedly bite off her bottom lip.

Police recovered the severed lip from the floor of the Nzerem's home, but surgeons were unable to reattach it.

The incident stemmed from an argument in which Nzerem's wife called him "short", Steve Wagstaffe, chief deputy district attorney for San Mateo County said.

While awaiting trial, Nzerem is free on a $500, 000 bond, which his wife made possible by bonding their home for the $50,000 needed to get Nzerem out.
In Nigerian culture, women are often treated as second-class citizens and must obey their husbands.
