37-year-old Rohan Richards was jailed on Mar 19th after allegedly attempting to cut his wife’s ear off.

Instead of leaving, Mr. Richards picked up a knife and attempted to cut off his wife’s ear. He then hit her head on a wall and strangled her. The only visible injuries were scratch marks on her forearm. Mr. Richards was asked what happened and initially refused to provide a statement. After being told the consequences, he admitted an argument occurred, but nothing physical took place. He stated, “whatever she said I did, I did.” He was taken into custody and transported to booking.
Rohan Richards was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on March 19th, charged with domestic assault with bodily injury. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $2,000.
