Remember Sara Stokes from MTV’s “Making The Band 2”? Well, according to TMZ, she was choked out and beaten by her husband Tony — probably in front of their kids — before he was arrested and thrown in jail last week.

Sara could learn a thing or two from pop singer Rihanna, who was also choked out and beaten before she came to her senses and dumped her abuser. If you recall, the last time Sara got her head busted was on August 2, 2009, when she “tripped” and fell in the couple’s Morena Valley, CA home after arguing with Tony.

Even though she later changed her story numerous times to protect her husband, we do know that Sara fought back by grabbing a kitchen knife and stabbing Tony in the arm. They were both transported to jail after receiving treatment for their wounds.

I could go on and on about the problems with insecure women falling in love with emotionally unavailable mama’s boys, but I’ll just stick to the facts of the latest incident.

Sources close to Sara tell [TMZ], it all went down last weekend at a friend’s house in Georgia — Tony Stokes accused Sara of being with another man … and then allegedly choked and hit her.

According to law enforcement, Tony was arrested for simple battery — and released the next day on $2,000 bail.

Tony’s taking it all in stride … telling us, “Everybody speculates and blows things out of proportion. It’s a crazy kind of life. We’re dysfunctional. We need our own TV show. I love my wife.” Source

If we can find any good news in this sad story, it is this: Sara’s friend alerted TMZ to the beat down, which indicates that Sara is tired of getting her head bounced off the concrete. It is likely that she gave her friend the green light to spill the teas to TMZ.

It’s also quite possible that Sara has endured the violence long enough and she’s decided to divorce Tony due to the fact that she found another emotionally unavailable mama’s boy who she thinks she can change.

Women like Sara never learn.
