Amy Parrino, 44, has pleaded guilty to domestic violence that caused severe injuries to her boyfriend. She had nearly choked him by sitting on his face and demanding oral sex.

Parrino, a former assistant to an embalmer at a mortuary, hit the man with a belt, brass phone and cell phone, and allegedly struck him with her fist up to 25 times on Dec. 2, 2018. The boyfriend told police that he was “scared to death” and he was chased around their house in Boone County, Missouri, naked.

The victim claimed that Parrino launched herself on him, sat on his face and ordered him to perform the sexual act. The man alerted the police and the responding officer spotted about 3-4 inches long cuts in each of his arms. He had also suffered cut on the bridge of his nose validating the fact Parrino perched on it. He told police that the red marks on his chest were a result of being struck by a belt.

The boyfriend had claimed that Parrino "gets very violent very quickly.”

Parrino was charged with one count of first-degree sexual abuse and one count of third-degree domestic assault. She was sentenced to three years of prison on assault charges but a judge in the Circuit Court ordered five years’ probation. The sexual abuse charge was dropped after a plea deal.

Parrino, who had been locked up on Boone County Jail since last December, has been released.
