A Gilbert woman is facing attempted homicide charges after police said she told them she stabbed her estranged husband in the chest with a kitchen knife while they were having sexual intercourse on Tuesday.
Falon Gonzales, 23, was arrested for allegedly assaulting her husband, Juan Carlos Gonzales, 26, at their residence near the 300 block of West Stanford Avenue.
According to Maricopa County court records, Falon Gonzales's husband filed for divorce about a month ago. The couple met Tuesday at about 4:30 p.m. to have their Gilbert residence, in the 300 block of West Stanford Avenue, appraised.
After the appraiser left, according to court records, Juan Carlos Gonzales showed his wife dissolution of marriage papers. Court records state that when Falon Gonzales began to cry, her husband comforted her and the two proceeded to have sexual intercourse.
According to court records, during sexual intercourse, Falon Gonzales allegedly took a knife out of her duffle bag and stabbed her husband in the chest.
Court records state she removed the knife from her husband's chest and said, "I'm sorry Juan." The couple allegedly struggled for the knife, according to court records, and Juan Carlos Gonzales fled to a neighbor's house, where the neighbor called 911.
Court records state Juan Carlos Gonzales was taken to Scottsdale Healthcare Osborn hospital where he was treated for a collapsed lung and listed in stable condition. Gilbert police said they found Falon Gonzales about two miles from the couple's house. She was taken to Mercy Gilbert Medical Center for a hand injury.
Falon Gonzales was later booked into a Maricopa County jail and is scheduled to appear before a judge on Aug. 29.
