This knife-wielding desperado should have come to her senses.
South Carolina woman Vernett Bader faces domestic violence charges after cops say she stabbed her roommate with a 14-inch serrated bread knife because he refused to stop playing the Eagles.
Bader, 54, was at her North Charleston home late Monday while her 64-year-old roommate and his brother watched TV and listened to a loop of classic rock tunes by the “Hotel California” Grammy winners.

But the peaceful, easy feeling was broken. Bader didn’t want to hear anymore — prompting the roommate to tell her to shut up, according to the police report.
That’s when she allegedly ran to the kitchen and grabbed a knife. Her roommate — whom she had previously dated before the thrill was gone — was able to wrestle the blade away, reported ABC affiliate WCIV-TV.
Undeterred, Bader went back for a bread knife. Police said she admitted to stabbing her roommate multiple times, but claimed she did so in self-defense because he was choking her.

Police responding to the scene said they didn’t find any marks on her neck consistent with attempted strangulation.
The victim, however, suffered wounds to his arm, hand and elbow, The Post and Courier reported.
Investigators said all three were intoxicated at the time.
Bader remained in Charleston County Jail on Tuesday.
There was no mention of which Eagles songs — their hits include “Witchy Woman,” “Lyin’ Eyes” and “One of These Nights” — were on the roommate's pestering playlist.
