Great article! I completely agree. We need to stop victim-blaming and start asking abusers, 'Why did you hit the victim?' https://themelodramaticconf...
DV is hard when your abuser is a cop, and is too clever to mark you physically. He has the power to stalk, a brotherhood who turn a blind eye, and he knows the system, and access to police data systems.There is no-one to turn to.

Go to court and he knows the system and has experience in twisting facts and presents better in court because he's familiar with it.
