Morgantown - Authorities say a US man tortured his wife
and kept her in chains for a decade, treating her as his slave.
A criminal complaint says the
43-year-old woman was burned on her back and breasts with irons and frying
pans, and her foot was smashed under farm equipment. She also allegedly
delivered a stillborn child while in chains. Another infant survived.
Thirty-seven-year-old Peter Lizon
was in a West Virginia jail on $300 000 bond Wednesday. He was scheduled to
appear in court on a malicious wounding charge on Friday.
Jackson County Chief Deputy Tony
Boggs says the victim has endured more torture than virtually any domestic
violence victim he's ever seen.
Lizon's attorney wasn't
immediately available for comment. He told WSAZ-TV the allegations are false.
