Wife beats husband caught in act & gets fined! Mon Dieu!

Yes, times have changed.  In the good old days being caught out by one's spouse was the green light for whatever came to mind!  Now it is not so.  Sadly the wife was fined for beating her husband in the sum of 500 euros!  There we were thinking Monaco was a boring place*.

I wonder if 'dementia americana' exists in the US as a defence? Men only. Where if one catches one's spouse in the act then anything is forgiven.

*Truthfully Monaco is ever so dull unless you like counting the zeros on your bank statements which is a pastime of locals there.
