Still waiting on @OctilIery to explain these situations:

I can definitely think of situations where learning you were cheated on can justify reducing sentencing for domestic assault

It isn't hard to imagine. Any time a reasonable person would be driven to extreme anger, it's reasonable to consider that into sentencing. Just like you'd consider intent, harm done, the person's history, and any number of other circumstances.

It wouldn't be anywhere close to the majority of cases, but in such an emotionally charged situation there are definitely going to be mitigating circumstances.
