Dr. Phil

I Did Not Try to Blind My Wife (12x65)


Air date: Dec 10, 2013

Heather claims that her husband of two years, Anthony, is physically and verbally abusive and says she fears that one day, he could seriously hurt or kill her. She says that he has punched her, bitten her, slammed her into walls, thrown her to the ground and, most recently, she claims he tried to blind her by putting rubbing alcohol in her contact lens case — allegations that Anthony completely denies. Anthony says that ever since returning from Iraq, he has had trouble controlling his anger. He admits that he lashes out verbally at Heather, who he claims nags him and pushes his buttons, but he is adamant that he would never physically harm her. Will he agree to take a polygraph test? Dr. Phil has some tough questions for Anthony about his behavior, including his admitted abuse of Heather’s small Chihuahua. What does he think is at the root of Anthony’s anger? Plus, Dr. Phil’s wife, Robin, issues a strong warning about domestic violence and provides important information from her new ASPIRE Initiative. Will her words make an impact on Heather and Anthony?
