Woman bites off tongue of her rapist attacker....

A woman in South Carolina did what she NEEDED TO DO . . . to escape being raped, and possibly MURDERED. She BIT OFF her alleged attacker's tongue.

The incident happened on Oct. 16 in North Charleston, S.C., when a 33-year-old woman, who has not been identified, claims a man with a knife tried to enter her home.

The assailant forced the victim to open her door, and then forced himself on top of her and shoved his tongue in her mouth.

Luckily the woman had taken a self-defense class, and so she did what self-defense experts say is THE MOST EFFECTIVE WAY to stop a rape - she went for her attacker’s weak spot. In this instance, it was his tongue.

The woman “bit his tongue as hard as she could until she heard it snap,” according to the police report. Her assailant then began screaming and climbed off of her.

The woman ran out of the house, but not before spitting out her attacker’s tongue and throwing it on her kitchen floor.

She then drove to a nearby gas station and used the phone to call police, having left her own phone behind in the house. When police arrived, they found the woman’s face bruised and swollen. She also had scratches on her knee and foot. But she had escaped the worst outcome.

Shortly afterwards, police arrested the alleged attempted rapist, 16-year-old Antoine Miller, after his mom called 911 because of her son “not having a tongue and needing medical assistance.”
