Let's Taco 'Bout True Crime - Let's Taco 'Bout "Lorena" - The Lorena Bobbitt Docuseries
play

03/05/19 • 77 min

This week we taco 'bout the 4-part docuseries "Lorena" available now on Amazon Prime.

In 1993, 24-year-old Lorena Bobbitt was arrested for cutting off the penis of her 26-year-old husband John Wayne Bobbitt. The case and trial would become a media circus. Lorena would claim that John physically and sexually abused her throughout their marriage and she finally snapped after he'd raped her, once again, that night. He would claim that they were splitting up, that Lorena was angry and had mutilated him out of jealousy and revenge.
