A hubby has been unfortunately jailed for beating up his wife. Don’t get this wrong. He did not do it on purpose. The man, Adam Kearns, punched his wife in the face three times when they were sleeping. When he was done, he laid back down to sleep.
Now while the story may seem unintentional, Kearns was still charged with assault. He had no memory of what had happened and now finds himself serving a sentence for something he is totally unaware of. In fact, his wife even said he wasn’t a violent man.
REM behavior disorder is usually seen in much older adults. The most heinous crimes committed during sleep tend to occur in non-REM parasomnias.
