Probable cause: Woman allegedly high on meth stabs friend in the throat with scissors at Carterville home

(This post has been changed to reflect the incident took place January 22 and not February 22.)

It's one of those things they don't teach you in school.

If you are going to do meth with a friend make sure to be careful that she doesn't come running down the stairs, jump on you, starting hitting you and then stab you in the throat with a pair of scissors.

That's what a woman says happened to her at a Carterville home January 22 and the woman had to have stitches to close an approximately three-inch cut across her throat.

The Jasper County Prosecuting Attorney filed felony first degree domestic assault and resisting arrest charges against Rocksanne LaDonna Torix, 21. Torix was able to evade the police and has yet to be arrested. Her bond has been set at $25,000 cash only.

The probable cause statement says the woman was lying on the couch when Torix jumped on her and began hittting her in the face, neck and chest area.








(The woman) said she attempted to defend herself and get Ms. Torix off of her. The home owner ran in at this time and pulled Ms. Torix off of her She said didn't initially feel any pain in her neck, but felt a lot of wetness in her shirt, so she went to the bathroom to check and noticed she was bleeding heavily from the throat/side of the neck area and it appeared she had been cut and asked Ms. Toris what she cut her with and Ms. Toris stated she had a pair of scissors in her hand. (The home owner) and Ms. Torix took her to the hospital that night.

When the Carterville Police came to arrest Torix, she was able to get away after switching clothes with her sister, according to the probable cause statement.

    This incident didn't happen in Oronogo. I believe that it was Carterville

  2. You're right. That's what I had in my notes and at the beginning of the post, but for some reason I put Oronogo in a couple of places. Thanks for pointing that out. It has been corrected.

    You put that Ms Torix took her to the hospital but Ms Torix is the one who attacked her? Might have misse up the names a bit at the end of the story.

      No they were lovers and the "victim" is suicidal and has cut herself and been hospitalized a few times for it before they got together. I believe that it was made up but that's just a opinion.
