A talented pianist stabbed her boyfriend in the groin, narrowly missing his penis, after he refused to have sex with her, a court heard.
Marlena Meczynska-Shiibashi, 38, from East Sussex, waited until her boyfriend fell asleep and then poured bleach on his face.
So, while he was confused and groping for his clothes in the dark, she stabbed him in the groin, narrowly missing his penis.
Lewes Crown Court heard the couple had been in a stormy, on-and-off relationship for several years from 2011.
The music teacher later said: “I wanted to hurt his penis but I didn’t succeed.” She was today sentenced to seven years in prison for sins after pleading guilty to wounding her boyfriend with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
Piano teacher Marlena Meczynska-Shiibashi has been sentenced to seven years in prison after pleading guilty to wounding her boyfriend with intent to cause grievous bodily harm.
Although they were not living together at the time of the attack, they sometimes met at his apartment and had casual sex.
They sometimes acted out fantasies in which Meczynska-Shiibashi dressed as a schoolgirl and called her boyfriend “daddy”, the court was told.
On the day of the attack in April last year, her boyfriend had gone to her home in Hastings, East Sussex, after family members contacted him out of concern for her.
The couple had sex, but when she failed to climax, he left because he had some chores to do.
He returned a little later and the couple watched a movie together before the man turned over to go to sleep.
The court heard Meczynska-Shiibashi tried to initiate sex with him by fondling him under the sheets, but he told her: “Please no.”
He then went to sleep but was abruptly awakened when he felt liquid being poured on his left cheek.
He told the court: “My next memory was a liquid being poured over the left side of my face. When I inhaled it, I realised it was bleach. It went into my nose and ear.
“I immediately sat up and that’s when she threw the rest of the contents of the glass in my face.” The victim said she tried to use her phone’s flashlight to find her clothes and managed to pull on her socks.
Meczynska-Shiibashi said she wanted to damage his penis but failed during her trial at Lewes Crown Court.
Blinded by the bleach, he could also feel a warm liquid running down his leg.
He said: “At first I thought I had urinated on myself out of fear of what was happening. It was only when I looked down that I realised it was blood from a wound.
“I then looked at her and I could see that she had a face absolutely full of rage and that she was holding a knife. She was coming towards me with the knife.” Brandishing the knife, the piano teacher attacked me again as I tried desperately to escape, the court heard.
The victim began screaming for help and in a panic grabbed a cardboard box to use as a shield and managed to push her off the bed before fleeing the apartment.
He said: “I was able to jump on the bed, run over it, open the door and all of a sudden the landlord was right outside.” Police discovered the 50-year-old man naked and covered in blood in the hallway of the rented property.
He was covered in bleach and had a stab wound to his upper thigh. He was rushed to hospital where he received medical treatment for his injuries.
As police were arresting Meczynska-Shiibashi, she asked officers: “Do you know if it’s on his genitals or not?” In court, she said: “I wanted to hurt him on the penis, but because he moved, I hit him on the thigh.” Meczynska-Shiibashi told the court: “I got really drunk and got high on marijuana.
I took a kitchen knife and some bleach and poured the bleach into a glass. I poured it over his closed eyes.
The piano teacher told the court that she had been the victim of serious sexual abuse and that she had acted in self-defense.
But the court found no evidence of abuse and found she was coercive and controlling toward her boyfriend.
The court heard that Meczynska-Shiibashi had a personality disorder for which there is no medical treatment.
Judge Christine Laing KC told the pianist: “I find you to be a liar and a very manipulative person who hides behind a history of serious abuse as an excuse to attack a people both mentally and physically.” She sentenced her to seven years in prison and four years of extended probation to protect the public.
She also imposed an indefinite restraining order on her, prohibiting her from contacting her ex-boyfriend.
