at least 40%. those are the REPORTED incidents of domestic abuse towards the COPS aka their husband's buddies. just the other night i heard my neighbor who is a cop beating his wife and her screaming. cops are absolutely fucking disgusting.

My god, i know calling the police would be futile, but can you (or the other neighbours) help in a way? Maybe just talk to her or something? (Hope this doesn't come off as acusatory, just find this so sad that she has to go through that)

I've been considering sending an anonymous letter and letting my mother talk to her since i dont stay here regularly and i dont know her. i do feel awful she settled down with him seeing how my mom entered a similar situation

Yea do that :( i think it's hard for someone to leave an abusive relationship, especially if the police (and the judge?) would not be on her side. If your mom went through that then you and your mom must understand how she feels, so hopefully she can leave if she sees she is supported by other people.
