A picture may be worth a thousand words. It cannot, however, guarantee a long jail sentence.Carol Williams says she’s furious that the man who savagely beat her may walk away with what she describes as a "slap on the wrist."Ms. Williams feared for her life when she was attacked by her live-in boyfriend of two years, Zane G. Tewalt, 45, Sept. 1. A seemingly harmless request to retrieve a cell phone prompted the attack, which lasted more than three hours/Summer Crosby, St. Maries Gazette Record. More here.
