Charges filed against woman accused in Rice Road stabbing

COLUMBIA, Mo. (KMIZ)

A woman was charged with two felonies in Boone County after she allegedly stabbed someone with a knife on Monday morning in the 4500 block of Rice Road.

Dariell Deshell Smith, 33, of Columbia, was charged on Tuesday with first-degree domestic assault and armed criminal action. She is being held at the Boone County Jail without bond. A hearing was held on Tuesday.

The probable cause statement says police were first called for an assault call that alleged the victim was stabbed by someone described as a witness.

The victim had a stab wound on their left arm and additional scratch marks, the statement says. The 911 call allegedly included someone identifying themselves as the witness’ name in the stabbing, police wrote.

Smith had claimed she started arguing with the victim before the witness stabbed them, court documents allege. Footage from a doorbell camera allegedly caught video of Smith assaulting the victim outside, the statement says.

Both the victim and the witness had identified Smith as the person who stabbed the victim, the statement says. Smith also allegedly denied any part of the attack occurring outside of the home, the statement says.
