Domestic Violence Attempt: Women Puts Survival Skills to the Test



  Ladies, tuning into Survival Alaska, a TV show on National Geographic, just might save your life. Recently a 25 year old woman was found alive in the Canadian woods after being reported missing for 12 days. Stephanie Beaverbones was savagely attacked by a man she recently met after being separated when the car she was in with her group of friends broke down. The group of friends split up leaving Stephanie behind with Kevin Gladue 36, a man she just met that day. Gladue allegedly sexually assaulted Stephanie leaving her with a broken jaw and concussion, but Stephanie used her quick wits to escape her attacker and ran into the nearby woods.

  After becoming disoriented, Stephanie survived in the Canadian wilderness for 12 days living off of berries and river water. She was later found by an oil worker and was reunited with her family. According to the NY Daily News, Gladue was charged with "aggravated assault, sexual assault and obstructing a peace officer in connection to the attack."
