The Queens man whose wife dumped boiling water on his genitals as he slept Monday morning says he doesn't want his spouse of 21 years to be incarcerated, he just wants a divorce. Speaking to CBS2 from the hospital where he's recovering from 2nd and 3rd degree burns, Emmanuel Ojofietimi insisted he hasn't cheated on her... lately: "Maybe 20 years ago, 15 years ago." (He also tells the Post, "She kept nagging and nagging me all the time.") Oyindamola, his wife, is currently being held at Rikers in lieu of $100,000 bail. Yesterday nightly news crews hit the streets to gauge public reaction, and it's interesting how many people couldn't help but laugh a little, while simultaneously condemning this particularly gruesome act of revenge. Bellport resident Jessie Maldanado even admitted to CBS2 that she's considered mutilating her boyfriend's genitals if she caught him cheating. Her boyfriend, who was standing right next to her, sagely added, "I need to get that thought out of her head." What do you think? Is burning, biting, or gluing a man's rod or johnson acceptable punishment for infidelity? And for scorned ladies contemplating vengeance, the Frisky has a thorough roundup of history's most infamous paybacks.
Man With Boiled Penis Wants Divorce, Not Prison For Wife
Boiling Water On The Penis One Way To Stop Cheating Spouse
Yesterday morning a Queens man was awakened by the unenviable sensation of boiling water poured on his genitals by his wife. Emmanuel "Ojo" Ojofeitimi, 67, sustained second and third degree burns over 30% of his body; his wife Oyindamola Ojofeitimi told cops she was motivated by the discovery that her husband of 20 years had been unfaithful. Speaking to the Post from his hospital bed last night, Ojofeitimi explained that "I didn't know what had happened. By the time I woke up, the skin was falling off." A neighbor says, "It sounded like a woman screaming," and tells the Daily News that Ojofeitimi, a Nigerian immigrant and nurse like his wife, was carried out on a stretcher. But he insists he wasn't cheating, telling the Post, "She does not know how to forgive and forget; she doesn't let anything go by. If I come home late from work, she's always assuming that I'm with a woman." His wife was charged with assault and harassment; her lawyer maintains that Ojofeitimi "had a history of abusing her both physically and psychologically." If so, they can probably call it even now.
