John & Lorena: The Shocking Bobbitt Reunion
It's the reunion no one thought would ever happen: John Wayne Bobbitt and Lorena Bobbitt -- together again! Only Victoria Recano and "The Insider" has the infamous newsmakers facing off in the same room, 16 years after Lorena mutilated her husband! "It was one of the most terrifying things I ever went through," says John. "You drove me crazy," Lorena tells her former husband. "You drove me insane. No woman should go through that I went through." It was back in June of 1993 that the world heard their incredibly horrific story: After a fight, Lorena cut off her husband's manhood with a knife while he was asleep, then fled and threw it out of her car window. Later, Lorena's trial was carried live, and after the stunning testimony, she was ultimately found not guilty by reason of temporary insanity. "John, you did a lot of things to me that were very painful," says Lorena. "I didn't really understand how sensitive you really are," responds John. "You are really sensitive and you take things really seriously." In separate confession cams, both parties recall that fateful night. "I don't remember what happened the night of the incident, because I was insane, I was crazy, call it whatever -- but I was temporary insane," says Lorena. "I went to the kitchen, that's what I remember. I don't remember anything exactly what I did after I went to the kitchen." "I woke up bleeding and I didn't know if I was awake or asleep," says John. "It was a life-and-death situation, what I was going through. There was so much blood that I was losing. I was confused, scared, terrified -- I was a lot of things all at once." When asked if he raped his wife, John says, "No. I didn't rape my wife. I didn't rape anybody." While their stories may differ, Lorena has turned her painful memories into hope: LorenasRedWagon.com. "I started Lorena's Red Wagon Foundation to help abused women," says Lorena. "To help women that are trapped in domestic abuse and domestic violence. And I want to help them because I lived through it, and through my experience I know exactly what they're going through."
