Woman, 50, throws bucket of poo over next door neighbour for ‘sleeping with her husband’
A woman has been arrested for throwing a bucket of poo over her neighbour whom she believed was cheating with her husband.
Yirsi Esperanza Machado Rivera, 50, was arrested by police on suspicion of burglary and battery after she allegedly lost her temper and threw a bucket of faeces over her next door neighbour. She believed the woman was having an affair with her husband, according to the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office.
The woman appeared in court where the case was summarised.
Judge Mindy Glazer told the court: “So, this is an interesting case. She thinks the neighbour is having relations with her husband, so she pushes her way into the victim’s house and then throws poop on the victim, a bucket of poop.”
Deputies said in an arrest report that Machado Rivera and the victim live in separate sides of a split trailer in a mobile home park near Miami Gardens in Florida, US.
At around 6:15pm last Monday, September 7, the suspect went to the victim’s side of the trailer and “began banging on the door.”
The court heard that the victim answered the door and Rivera accused her of having a s£xual relationship with her husband. Deputies say she then didn’t wait for an answer, and forced her way into the victim’s home, pushing her.
She then threw a bucket filled with human faeces onto her before leaving.
Machado Rivera told a witness before the incident that “she pooped in a bucket to throw it in the victim’s face,” according to the arrest report.
But she told officers she had been using the bucket anyway as her toilet was broken. She denied entering the victim’s home or throwing what she called, the “caca” on her.
Machado Rivera appeared in court and was not released on bail. She remains in police custody awaiting her trial date.
