VICE AIN'T NICE

Seattle, Washington
A violent boyfriend forced his pregnant girlfriend to sign an 'abuse contract' allowing him to beat her whenever he wanted. Under the terms of the contract Graydon Smith,31, was allowed to punch, kick and throttle his 19 year old girlfriend. His only restriction was that he wasn't allowed to punch her stomach.
The bizarre contract was revealed after police arrested him for assaulting his girlfriend at their home in Seattle, Washington. The victim's stepfather had called police when he called at the house and saw Smith throttling his daughter.
Smith admitted to police that he had made his girlfriend, who has not been named, sign the contract giving him free rein to carry out domestic abuse. Seattle police detective Elizabeth Ellis said: 'Graydon made her sign a statement giving him permission to physically abuse her anywhere on her body except on her pregnant belly.'
When police arrested Smith they found his girlfriend with bruises and cuts to her face. She confirmed her boyfriend was responsible for the assault. Unemployed Smith has been charged with assault and harassment. He is being held on $100,000 bond.

Jonesville, Michigan
Bobbie Smith, a 27-year-old Jonesville woman was arraigned Tuesday on charges she bit her sister's nose off during a domestic dispute.
"I love my sister - I was trying to take care of her," said Smith as she bawled in court before Judge James Justin.
According to police, Smith and her sister were in the midst of a heated argument when Smith reportedly bit off about 1/3 of her sister's nose.
Smith told police she was drunk and did it in self defense, although police could find no signs of injury to back up her claim.
Smith's sister, on the other hand, was rushed to Allegiance Health before finally being transferred to the University of Michigan Med Center. Police recovered the missing portion of her nose, but it is not yet known if the piece could be reattached.
Investigators say Smith was extremely combative during her arrest - managing to damage a security partition while in the back seat of the patrol car.
She was booked into jail on charges of assault with intent to do great bodily harm, aggravated domestic violence, resisting arrest, malicious destruction of property and mayhem.
