On June 23 of that year, Lorena Bobbitt decided to cut off her partner’s genitals after she got tired of being constantly abused by her husband, John Wayne Bobbitt.

At that time the girl was just 22 years old and becoming part of the sensationalist and even humorous headlines for her amazing and courageous resolution changed her life.

Lorena later became a righteous and role model for many women. Although she spent 45 days in a psychiatric center, she was found not guilty because of "mental incapacity".

Despite the tragic chapter, Bobbit rebuilt her life, married again and founded "Red Wagon" with the aim of helping other women and children victims of abuse.

As for John Wayne Bobbitt, after being the victim of the macabre revenge, he became famous. He even explained in some interviews that the fame he got for his penis gave him opportunities that he never thought of, such as starring in porn movies, until forming a rock band called "Severed Parts".
