Adultery - Part Two (Revenge)



While the injured party in a case of adultery must understandably feel hurt and betrayed should this give them the right to carry out acts of revenge on their partner (or former partner)? The most extreme case of this would be John Wayne Bobbitt. Bobbit's wife Loretta cut off his penis while he slept when she found out he had had an affair. While I am sure she was angry and upset at finding out about the affair this did not give her the right to mutilate her husband in this way.
