Assemblywoman Francis Allen was arrested Saturday and faces a felony charge on allegations that she stabbed her husband in the arm with a steak knife, according to a police report on the incident.

Allen, R-Las Vegas, is charged with battery domestic violence with use of a deadly weapon, a felony carrying a potential penalty of two to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. No court date has been scheduled.

The arrest is only the latest brush with controversy for Allen. Last month, Allen was the subject of an ethics complaint after she stopped payment on a check for more than $5,000 for flower arrangements at her wedding.

The florist, Cynthia Calhoun, said Allen expected vendors to provide free services at the wedding because of her position as a legislator. Allen said that the accusations were false and that she did not pay for the flowers because they were unsatisfactory.

9. odd mugshot...is she topless?

Looks like she's not wearing a top.

Well I hope he leaves her and never looks back. Getting stabbed before you reach your 2 month wedding anniversary is not a good sign. :scared:

10. Just more proof that gay marriage will be the end of us all ... or something.

California declares gays can marry other gays, then a few days later formerly God-fearing Christian Republican women-folk stab their husbands? Coincidence? I think not! We're doomed.
