Woman Enraged by 'Judge Judy' Attacks Man with Hammer

(NewsCore) - A Florida woman was being held in jail without bond Tuesday on charges that she attacked a man with a hammer because she was upset at the TV court show "Judge Judy."

Police were called to the Jupiter, Fla., home of 62-year-old Janet Knowles at around 11:30am local time Sunday on a report of a domestic disturbance, The Palm Beach Post reported.

They found a 65-year-old man, whose identity and relationship to Knowles were not released, suffering from bleeding head injuries.

The man told officers he had been watching the show when Knowles got "upset with Judge Judy" and hit him in the head and arm with the hammer.

Knowles, who reportedly had difficulty conversing coherently with police, confessed that she attacked the man because she was "mad" at Judge Judy Sheindlin.

She was being held at Palm Beach County Jail and faces a charge of aggravated battery using a deadly weapon.

Her victim was treated at the scene, and his condition was unknown Tuesday.
