"Super glue assault spawns civil suit
Wednesday, November 02, 2005

By Rebekah Scott, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

"Male bonding" is taking on new meaning in Westmoreland County this week, where a Murrysville woman is on trial for using Super Glue to stick it to her ex-boyfriend.

Court papers say Kenneth Slaby of Pittsburgh and Gail O'Toole of Murrysville dated through most of 1999, but the couple broke up just before Christmas.

Mr. Slaby found another love interest, but Ms. O'Toole continued to phone, the lawsuit says. The pair resumed dating in early May 2000.

The evening of May 7 Mr. Slaby took a nap at Ms. O'Toole's home.

He woke "to a strong burning sensation" in his genital area and found red and blue nail polish poured in his hair, the suit says. Glue had been used on his private parts and an unflattering comment had been painted in nail polish on his back.

The suit says Ms. O'Toole took away the man's keys and clothing and told him she'd planned the attack since their breakup months earlier.

Mr. Slaby walked about a mile to a Sheetz convenience store, where he met a Murrysville police officer. He was taken to Forbes Regional Hospital for treatment.

In June 2000 Ms. O'Toole pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault and served six months' probation.

Mr. Slaby filed the civil suit the following September, alleging battery, assault, and intentional infliction of emotional distress. Mr. Slaby wants at least $30,000 in damages for each of the three counts. Opening arguments are expected today before Judge Gary Caruso."

I would hope that SHE pays to the tune of 90 grand in court! I would have sued for much more though:😀

She should counter sue for the cost of the glue and nail polish. Plus pain and suffering of her own.

What gets me is how could the guy actually sleep through all of this?
I don't see the mentioning of being passed out from a drunken stupor, or getting drugged to sleep.

Some people sleep heavily. I could easily sleep through all that. Lucky my girlfriend isn't angry at me.

Superglue is actually suprisingly easy to get off a person. You would be amazed at the things people get stuck to themselves (either accidently or by others when they're passed out drunk at a party).

From a different report:

At the hospital, oils did little to remove the glue. Nurses actually had to peel it off. Slaby underwent treatment from a dermatologist several times afterward.

This is nuts. Acetone! Nail-polish remover! This'll get Super Glue off, though with a bit of effort. Or am I missing something?

No you're not missing anything. The nurses in question may have been a little reluctant to use acetone on the poor guys bits and decided to get it off a different way 🙂 Note guys: the last person you want near the family jewels in a professional capacity is a nurse 🙂
