We do nothear aboutitall the time.Infact,by thenatureof the crime, its victims are typically quiet and easily intimidated, worn down by yearsofphysicalandmentalabuse wrought by the handsand wordsof someonethey loved,but now fear. It's called domestic violence and sadly it takes headliners like the Bramesmurder-suicide orthemurderofStaciPetersonandherunborn child to bring it to our attention once again. Itissadthatoneofthe mostcommonly carriedout crimesinAmerica receives little to no national recognition until they reach a point of horrendous proportions. According to theNationalDomestic ViolenceHotline,almost onein three women will become a victim of abuse by their husbands or boyfriendsat some point intheirlives. Inother words,out ofthe 2,029 female undergraduateshere at SeattleUniversity,almost 678of them will become a victimof domestic violence. That'sa fact. Keepinmind that althoughmale against female violenceis the most pervasive;it is notalone.Mencansuffer equallyabusive relationships withafemale ormalepartner;andfemales can still suffer at the hands of a female partner.
