   Luminiţa Perijoc gets 5-year prison sentence for raping and stabbing cab driver in 2012 attack

At one point in her short-lived modeling career, Luminiţa Perijoc, from Tulcea, Romania, was considered a very good Angelina Jolie lookalike with good chances to succeed in the industry. However, that was before she attacked, raped and stabbed a male cab driver in 2012.

Perijoc’s case came to international media attention for a variety of reasons, with number one being the most obvious: she was a gorgeous woman who had forced herself onto a male cabbie because he had refused to indulge her fantasies and please her.

Nicolae Stan, the cabbie, had gone to her apartment because he had delivered some groceries for her. Little did he expect to be faced with a scenario worthy of “Basic Instinct,” and even less that he would end up in the hospital with knife wounds: Perijoc stabbed him 6 times after raping him once, when he refused to comply with her demands for a second time.

Perijoc initially tried to claim in court that she had been the victim in the incident and that she’d merely defended herself by stabbing Stan. The court decided she was not telling the truth and has now sentenced her to 5 years behind bars, Inquisitr reports.

However, she will be spending only 4 actually incarcerated because, the Mirror says, “she had been impaired by high strength medication.”

Meanwhile, Stan tells the media, he has to live with the trauma, but also with the shame of being mocked in his hometown because he refused to sleep with Perijoc. Few people understand that he didn’t want to have relations with her, regardless of the fact that she looked like one of the biggest and most beautiful stars in Hollywood.

This might be something Captain Obvious would say, but rape is still rape, no matter how handsome or beautiful the rapist.

“They don’t understand why I refused her, but they do not know what it is like to have a mad woman yelling at you at knife point. They look at her, then look at me an laugh. But I think anyone would find it impossible to perform with a knife at their throat even if they were with Miss Romania,” Stan says.

“I think she wasn’t used to anyone saying no because she flew into a rage when I declined. She took out a knife and forced me to undress and have relations with her,” he continues.

Perijoc stabbed him during the act.
