Monday, June 18th, 2007
A woman who ripped off her ex-boyfriend’s testicle with her bare hands has been sent to prison.
Amanda Monti, 24, flew into a rage when Geoffrey Jones, 37, rejected her advances at the end of a house party, Liverpool Crown Court heard.
She pulled off his left testicle and tried to swallow it, before spitting it out. A friend handed it back to Mr Jones saying: “That’s yours.”
Monti admitted wounding and was jailed for two-and-a-half years.
‘Pulled hard’
Sentencing Monti, Judge Charles James said it was “a very serious injury” and that Monti was not acting in self defence.
The court heard that Mr Jones had ended his long-term but “open relationship” with Monti towards the end of May last year.
The pair remained on good terms and on 30 May she picked him up from a party in Crosby and went back for drinks with friends at Mr Jones’s house.

Sheboygan County District Attorney Joe DeCecco said Shesto has confessed to the crime.
