Jesus.
It takes the average battered women SIX tries to leave her abuser before she is successful.
I haven't seen any statistics on how many women LIVE to the sixth time.
The most frightening thing is that because battered women often find themselves unable to testify, many of these men go free...and start all over again on someone new.
Great.

well, it's all due to our legal process -- innocent until proven guilty -- and the rampant technicality-laden defenses we've had to put up with since the dawn of time, not to mention the overcrowding of the prisons.

i'll bet if he were black he'd be serving the full time though.
