A California woman pleaded insanity in a knife incident

The couple was taken to Pullman Regional Hospital. The man suffered a punctured lung and stab wounds that hospital workers told officers barely extended to major arteries. The woman was also treated for her wounds.

The police were informed that there is a child in the house, one of the victims is the primary caregiver. Dennison told authorities she hit the man because she thought he was the devil and couldn’t let him raise the child.

When Dennison tried to attack the couple further, they defended themselves by using a baby gate and kitchen pots as a shield.

The victims made statements in court on Friday that said they were still deeply affected by the incident physically, mentally and emotionally.

“The attack ended in reality, but in my head it never ended,” the victim said. “The paranoia runs deep, and it’s not just Tiffany. I don’t trust any stranger anymore. … I no longer trust my judgment about new people.”

Dennison was remanded in custody until his sentencing date next month. She is being held on $1 million bail.
