A Wisconsin man was accused of allegedly beating his wife at their home after she confronted him over his personal hygiene. Michael Navrotsky, 67, was arrested by police in Kenosha on Sunday and charged with battery, strangulation and suffocation, and intimidation of a victim, a domestic abuse charge.
According to a criminal complaint the alleged altercation between Michael Navrotsky and his wife, 68-year-old Kimberly Navrotsky, was triggered by her telling him to take a shower and “she did not want him sleeping on her clean sheets” until he did so.
What allegedly ensued was a violent altercation that sent Kimberly Navrotsky fleeing to her neighbors’ house. Police responded to a call placed by Kimberly Navrotsky while she was back at her home. There, they observed her with several visible injuries to her face, including a bloody nose that she believed was broken.
When asked by police what happened, Kimberly Navrotsky said that she and Michael Navrotsky had been “arguing” because he “had not showered in two months.” At one point during their verbal altercation, she told him “she did not want him sleeping on her clean sheets until he had showered.” Michael Navrotsky then allegedly approached her, and she pushed him away out of fear that he might attack her.
According to the complaint, Michael Navrotsky allegedly grabbed his wife by the midsection and her throat. Kimberly Navrotsky said she was not able to breathe for about three seconds. As she kept trying to escape her husband, she said she asked him, “All this over a shower?” She told police that her husband then allegedly “punched her in the face three times with a closed fist.”
As Kimberly Navrotsky noticed that she was “covered in blood,” she told police that Michael Navrotsky claimed the blood was his. She ran into the bedroom and attempted to call 911, but he snatched the phone from her. The alleged attack continued as Michael Navrotsky grabbed her left ankle and started twisting it. She said that she kicked him in the groin and ran to their neighbors’ house to escape.
Kimberly Navrotsky called 911 from her neighbors’ house and was taken to the hospital for her injuries, including a broken nose.
When police questioned Michael Navrotsky, he told them that he and his wife had been arguing that day because he had not showered in about “three weeks.” He stated that Kimberly Navrotsky was the one who attacked him, and that he “back-handed” her once in “self-defense.”
