A Tennessee woman who allegedly stabbed the father of her child over a custody battle seemed unbothered by her arrest and the subsequent criminal charges as she appeared smiling from ear-to-ear in her mugshot.
Justyce Knowles, 25, was arrested on Tuesday for charges stemming from a incident in Dec. 4 where authorities say she allegedly stabbed the father of her child during a custody exchange, according to court documents obtained by Memphis NBC affiliate WMC.
The documents state that on Dec. 4 Knowles and her ex, who is only identified as “Walker” were exchanging custody of their child when an argument broke out between the two of them, which eventually escalated to a physical altercation. At one point during the altercation Knowles reportedly walked away from Walker and went inside the home. She allegedly came back outside and attacked the man with a knife. He reportedly suffered wounds to his hands and neck, WMC reported.
