Nurse strangles hit man hired to kill her

Police: Portland intruder strangled by nurse was a hit man

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) - Portland Police say the estranged husband of the woman who killed an intruder with her bare hands has been accused of hiring him to kill her.

Michael Kuhnhausen, 58, was charged Thursday with criminal conspiracy to commit murder and attempted murder.

Detectives say Kuhnhausen let Edward Haffey into Susan Kuhnhausen's house. Detectives say he waited for Susan Kuhnhausen with a claw hammer to arrive home from her nursing job.

Haffey struck her several times. According to a court affidavit obtained by The Oregonian newspaper, she managed to take the hammer away. The intruder bit Kuhnhausen several times. She bit back.

Finally, the 51-year-old woman was able to choke the life out of him.

Portland Police found the 59-year-old Haffey dead on the floor.

Susan Kuhnhausen told homicide detectives she believed her husband was involved.

I bet she doesn't get many people arguing about taking their meds.

I heard about that I bet she dosent use a knife to cook all she uses is her hands to rip things apart. She must have man hands how els could she kill some one like that.
 
I'm guessing this woman will be famous shortly. She will probably travel and give talks on how to defend yourself in life and death situations.

I might even attend............. :eek:

We haven't seen the pictures yet. A 105 pound trailer trash man looking to score some crank probably isn't that hard to choke out and take down...
 
Outstanding! Good for her! Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy, from the sounds of it.

I'm sure mindset was key, but it also sounds like she had something like eighty pounds on the guy.
 
Neighbors said Kuhnhausen's size -- 5-foot-7 and 260 pounds -- may have given her an advantage.
Holy Crap! How would you take something like that down? Elephant tranquilizers?

Wonder if the 'hitman' charged an up-front fee? Money lost...
