A New York woman reportedly fended off her husband's violent sexual advances by setting him on fire.
The New York Post says authorities allege Aisha Napoleon-Davis splashed alcohol over her husband in a bedroom brawl, and then set him on fire with a cigarette lighter.
She has pleaded not guilty to charges of assault that can carry a sentence of 25 years, claiming she acted in self-defence.
She said: "He grabbed my neck, choking me. I grabbed the rubbing alcohol and threw it in his eyes so he can get off of me. He came back so I pulled the lighter out and I don't remember flicking it."
