What does Domestic Violence look like?

Thank you Karin for sharing these photo's, I am just so sorry that things had to get this bad, you could have lost your life. The gentleman on the left is not Karin's husband but a friend who came to her rescue and got in the firing line.
The night this happened Karin had a baby with her who was only 22days old. I cannot begin to imagine what was going through her little mind, hearing shouting and screaming, crashing and breaking things around the house. She must have been terrified, but too young to speak. We have to stop this violence for the sake of us all, but especially the children who are in these homes who are trapped, terrified and with no other alternative but to be in the middle of it all.
Victims might escape from this violence, but the memories linger forever.
