A Chandler man accused of a vampire-related aggravated assault pleaded not guilty in a Maricopa County Superior Court yesterday.
Buckle up — this is a weird one.
According to court documents obtained by New Times, the alleged “vamp,” 24-year-old Aaron Homer, and his 21-year-old “vamp” girlfriend, Amanda Williamson, are “into
vampire stuff” and got angry when their roommate, 25-year-old Robert Maley, refused to allow them to slurp
blood from his arm.
In an exchange with a Chandler police officer, Maley was asked by the officer “he wants to cut you again so he
could suck your blood?”.
Maley replied “and I said no and then he flipped because they think they’re vampires.”
Maley says he’d let his roommates suck his
blood in the past but this time he wasn’t interested.
After Maley told the couple they couldn’t suck his blood, Homer became furious and stabbed him in the arm.
Bleeding
heavily, Maley didn’t immediately call an ambulance because there was a
warrant out for his arrest for a probation violation. Rather, he ran
out of the apartment leaving a snack for Homer and Williamson trail of blood leading out of the apartment.
Simultaneously,
firefighters were treating someone next door to Maley’s apartment when
they saw a man with blood gushing out of his arm. They called police.
When
police arrived, Williamson and Homer were sitting in the blood-covered
apartment. Williamson said she stabbed Maley in self defense after he
attacked her. Homer told several different stories — none of which were
believed by police — before finally settling on claiming Maley made
fun of their “religion,” so he stabbed him.
Williamson
was arrested on charges of false reporting,
Homer was arrested
on
charges of aggravated assault, and Maley was arrested on his probation
violation warrant. He was also treated for the wound, which
required several stitches.
