when they struggled for possession of a knife she had threatened him with. The judge said the safety of the public was not involved in the case and that he was not convinced she intended to use the knife to wound her husband. He said sentencing her was a matter of helping her to act differently in future. Name suppression was granted because his honour said it was a domestic matter of no intp.rest tn the mihlic.
