Wow, this woman looks scary, but stabbing someone over a turtle seems a little over the top...

I agree, I don't know what's wrong with people, stabbing a person is a very serious offense.

Y'all bugging out on that? LOL! What about her man who don't even want her arrested? And is probably the one who put up the bail money. LOL! Leave them two alone. They're in love.

The turtle ain't got nothing to do with it.

Yeah lol, they belong together, but I feel that the turtle might be safe in another location.

Hahahahaha . Agreed. The turtle would definitely be safer in another location. In fact, my cousin had a pet turtle when we were little kids, and her mom and dad got drunk, started fighting, and dad knocked mom down and she fell on the turtle and it died.
