Curious.

"Tang was arrested Monday and charged with manslaughter."
Of course, soon we'll read the follow-up:

BEIJING (Reuters) Chinese authorities today entered the Xio Deng Ping Correctional facility and released Tang Xiaowan to the custody of the Chinese Fencing Federation.

Tang, who is 6 feet, 4 inches tall, is believed to have been taken to the Federation's facilities in Laoshan, near Beijing to begin advanced training with the Chinese women's saber squad.

A spokesman for the international fencing's governing body, the FIE, was guardedly optimistic that fencers around the world would have little to fear while facing Xiaowan on the strip. "With that point control, she's probably better off in saber, anyway!" quipped the spokesman, who declined to be identified.

The whole thing really reminds me of one of the descriptions in Chicago's Cell Block Tango:

'He ran onto my knife 10 times'

This is sad.

Dont be silly, the article clearly says that she "stabbed" him in the "chest"... she's obviously a foil fencer.

Just goes to show you shouldnt mess with foilists. And when one tells you to cook dinner, you better be quick about it.
