 A 32 year old Lake George woman is facing attempted murder and assault charges after authorities say she cut the throat of a man she knew in LaPorte. The incident happened this past Saturday afternoon at a home located on Hubbard County Road 95. Hubbard County deputies responded to a 911 call and found Larry Holm bleeding from a cut on his throat. Holm was airlifted to an area hospital. Holm told authorities that he was sitting on a recliner when Janelle Rex went behind the recliner and reached around and cut his throat and then tried to stab him in the abdomen. Holm needed 20 stitches to close the cut which stretched ear to ear. Rex was arrested near the scene. She refused to speak to authorities but a neighbor told deputies that Rex told him that she had cut Holm and that Holm was bleeding quite a bit. Holm told authorities that Rex was homeless and stayed at his house sometimes and that previously she had dated his son. He says he had a disagreement with Rex regarding appliances prior to the incident. Rex is being held in the Hubbard County jail. Her next court appearance is set for August 13th.
