Some people pay good money to get branded

only it was only 4 inches. hardly worth mentioning.

FTFA:
The woman initially indicated to police that the sex was forced, leading them to believe the 4-inch-tall "R" emblazoned on Sara's abdomen was for rape, the New York Post previously reported. She later backed off the rape claim.

Sara being a guy, Caban not being Cuban...
I think...
So what was the R for?

(I know it wasn't a droid)

 
kilgorn 2008-06-14 11:19:42 PM  
Prosecutors said Caban, 23, was angry at Samir Sara for having sex with her once in 2004 and never calling her again,

You are supposed to call......really?

Would hit it once and let her brand me.

"Prosecutors said Caban, 23, was angry at Samir Sara for having sex with her once in 2004 and never calling her again, prosecutors said. Cuban's boyfriend circa 2006 helped her commit the crime..."

Uhh, so her NEW boyfriend helped her get even with a guy who nailed her and then didn't call her afterwards? He's punishing someone for not having more sex with his girl? Get them on Jerry Springer ASAP.

I wonder if he's just bitter that unlike him, the guy who got branded was initially smart enough to smell the huge bag of crazy Ms Cuban was packing and get the fark out. Sounds like the 2nd boyfriend is just too chickenshiat to break up with this nut-job ("that's a stabin', folks"), so he's helping punish any other dudes who made it out alive.

5 years? She's lucky.

And the "she's a good kid" comment? No she's not.

/Would like to see some naked pics, though...

First thing I thought of was the old Far Side cartoon with the cowboy holding the huge branding iron and the wide eyed cows in the background.

is for Raven?

From the CNN article (^) -
Blumberg said the men used a Taser to immobilize Sara in a room at the Chelsea Inn while [Kristina] Caban laughed at his distress and kicked him while he was down.

...

Caban's lawyer, James Friedman said, "She's a good kid, despite the picture painted of her, who exercised poor judgment and got herself into a bad situation. She is not the monster the prosecution made her out to be."

Only five years?
(You suppose if a man had done this to a woman, the sentence would've been five years?)

Well, her lawyer says she's a good kid. Enlisting thugs, getting a taser, heating up a wire - all mischevious fun.

Whoops, forgot the italic tags.
The quote in my last post ends right before "Only".


(Aaaaah, while I was typing Ow My Balls beat me to the punch anyway.)


The dude's terror, as he's / right after he's tased, seeing red-hot metal moving toward his midsection... that's only five years' worth of cruelty. Not ten, or twenty. Got it.

Somewhere there is a sign with 4" high metallic lettering missing an R.

"Walter's P_osthetic Limb Emporium"

Did this article lose the first two paragraphs?

/What?

 
Juniper Jupiter [recently expired TotalFark] 2008-06-14 11:38:58 PM  
The "R" should've stood for "REALLY Really Really Scary Freaky Farkin' Bunny-Boiler Biatch".

They did mention in the article that she said he raped her first. I would imagine that her current boyfriend had been fed the rape story when he agreed to help her brand the other guy.

Jebus Friggin Christmas get an editor that actually reads an article before greenlighting! Cuban?

...the 4-inch-tall "R" emblazoned on Sara's abdomen was for rape...

Why'd you brand him twice?

I like rape.

Uhmm...if YOU had been branded while sleeping (post sex?) by some chick 2 farking years after a one-night stand, would you call the police?

Perfect example of be very picky on who you sleep with.

kinshane [TotalFark] 2008-06-15 12:21:20 AM  
From the New York Post article referenced:

One of the men who allegedly branded Sara is Robert Testagrossa, 25, of East 25th Street - the son of two high-powered prosecutors, police sources said.

If I remember my Italian, "Testagrossa" means "big head". There's a joke in there somewhere trying to find its way out.

There's something macabre about walking around with little heads in a bag.

People who brand themselves make really stupid choices in life. Unless you're a monk or a veteran, the story behind a brand will always be worse than having it.

Considering she could've had him arrested for a bogus rape charge and more than likely sent to prison under the American court system where you're innocent until proven guilty unless it's a rape charge, he should be thankful that all he got was branded.

 
eliz1bef 2008-06-15 02:41:50 AM  
I'd imagine that the R stands for "Rapist," then if she was claiming rape to incite her boyfriend to participate.

What a crazy farking psycho biatchhag. She needs the word LIAR branded on her forehead in 3 inch high letters for making it that much harder for actual rape victims to be believed AND for scarring an innocent man who merely bruised her ego. Five years is a GIFT.

Kristina had a website at www.kristinacabanphotography.com, which has been removed in the past few days (although Google's cache still has some of the images). Anyone know where a mirror might be?

// wants to see if this psycho is into some crazy S&M
