CHESAPEAKE — A Chesapeake man has been charged in the stabbing death of his wife over the weekend.
Benjamin Johnson, 50, has been charged with first-degree homicide in the death of his wife, 45-year-old Marcia Teresa Johnson.
Police responded to the 2300 block of Gilmerton Road around 9:30 p.m. after receiving separate reports of a vehicular accident and a stabbing. They found Marcia Johnson in the vehicle suffering from stab wounds, and a nude man was seen fleeing the scene.
Marcia Johnson was taken to Sentara Norfolk General Hospital, where she died.

(NOTE: this blog is limited to incidents that appear in the media and are captured by our search terms. We recognize this is not an exhaustive portrayal of all deaths resulting from intimate violence.) When is society going to realize intimate violence makes victims of us all?
