Joplin woman allegedly assaults 81-year-old after he can't find steaks in the freezer

 


A 1 p.m. arraignment is scheduled Tuesday in Newton County Circuit Court for a Joplin woman who allegedly assaulted an 81-year-old man because he couldn't find any steaks in the freezer.

Kimberly JoAnn Carey (DOB 1968) is being held without bond on a domestic assault charge, according to court documents.

According to the probable cause statement, dispatch told Newton County deputies, Carey was on top of the man "striking him repeatedly and attempting to choke him."







When the deputies arrived, they assisted the man to the living room and told Carey to put her hands behind her back. She refused.

I grabbed Kimberly's arm and placed her on her stomach. I noticed she was very sweaty and detected a strong odor of intoxicants from her person.
Carey refused to get into the patrol car and tried to kick the deputy, according to the probable cause statement.







The 81-year-old man told deputies "Kimberly became angry when he couldn't locate steaks inside his freezer" and that she tried to hit him with the freezer door and began to punch and scratch him. After he fell, she jumped on him and hit and scratched him until she became tired and collapsed on him.

The deputy attempted to get Carey's version of events, the probable cause statement said.

She advised she was being set up. I observed blood on her t-shirt and asked about it. She advised it was {the victim's}, but wouldn't explain how it got on her shirt.
