I think the difference between this event and those depicted in The Burning Bed (and this is a BIG difference) is the former is a cheater, the latter was an extremely abusive person who had continually beaten and hurt that woman until she broke. NOT the same thing AT all.
Fuck a bunch of cheaters. Leave his dumbass and find you a real man. A man who beats a woman should be dealt with within the law, but if I were on a jury I wouldn't vote to convict a woman in such an extreme situation as the one depicted in The Burning Bed.
