County Sets Date In State Rep. Stabbing Case

Francis Allen Faces Preliminary Hearing June 30

State Rep. Francis Allen will be in a Las Vegas courtroom on June 30 for a criminal domestic violence charge after being accused of stabbing her new husband in the arm with a steak knife.

Allen has yet to enter a plea to the felony charge of battery with use of a deadly weapon. She is free on $3,000 bail, pending the preliminary hearing.

Allen stabbed her husband, Paul Maineri, in the left forearm during an argument on May 20, after she said Maineri embarrassed her at a public function, police said.

Maineri drove himself to a hospital, where he received three stitches to close the wound.

The couple was married March 29.
