Deputies: More than 3,500 knives, swords found in Brooksville home

Bay News 9 story here

From the article:

Investigators found more than 3,500 knives, swords and other blades inside the home after they arrested Dykema early Wednesday morning. They say Dykema also used some of those weapons to “booby trap” her home and yard, resulting in minor injuries for several members of the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office as they collected evidence.

Hernando County deputies originally stopped by just before 10 p.m. Tuesday to assist probation officers in serving arrest warrants. But they said getting her into custody wasn’t easy.

My husband was one. No where near this many though. Looks like she had some issues.
