Fredericton, NB. On January 6, Clarke Yeomans and his wife Tanya were spending their evening by playing video games and having a few drinks. Eventually, things start to heat up, but quickly go down hill from there.
Around 11:30pm, an argument began, which saw Clarke becoming enraged and grabbing a replica of the Master Sword (from the Legend of Zelda game series.) Tanya attempted to defend herself, but Clarke was able to subdue her and began to attack her with the sword. She was able to briefly escape, but he caught up with her and continued his sword attack.
During the attack, Clarke also utilized a pickaxe to beat up on Tanya, evidenced by the presence of her blood and tissue. She was able to again briefly escape, but she was grabbed by the throat and beaten into the floor. According to the Crown prosecutor, Tanya stated
Eventually, Clarke settled down, put a bandage on Tanya, and tried to do some house cleaning, since there was a large amount of blood spread around. She tended to herself as best she could, begging him to get her some help, to which he replied
It should be noted that this all occurred with their infant daughter daughter in the house. Tanya sustained numerous injuries, including a perforation from front to back that just barely missed a major blood vessel, various wounds on her hip, around her ear, neck, and arms, plus a busted eye and extensive bruising
It wasn't until later the next morning that Tanya was able to get a hold of 9-1-1. She told the dispatcher that her husband has taken a bunch of pills, and that she was in pretty hard shape. Once police were on the scene, Clarke admitted to them that he had taken a handful of his heart pills. He eventually plead guilty to attempted murder and unlawful confinement, and will face sentencing on December 18th.

He destroyed any means for her to call for help, and went on to assault her for the rest of the night."Clarke, you're going to kill me!' And he replied, 'It doesn't f--king matter, we're all going to die anyways.""
