What is happening to people or has already
happened d a few years back. I had visited
some friends and me and my hubby were
walking back to our apt complex.
We hard this piercing screaming from the
Next apt complex next door. I found the
number of the apt and we called he police
at once. They came in five minutes and we 'went
with them to the apt where she was screaming
.
I felt sick as the screaming had stopped.'
An ambulance was there and the emts were
shaking thir heads. She had died in spite of tjeir
help, her skull was crushed by the bat the huge
ape of a husband had welded one too many times.
I had never seen a police officer so angry as he
talked to the people who l\vied on each side of her
The excuses:I did not want to get involved and
another I Just Mind My own business was another.
I was in tears as I had tried to help this unknown
woman and I was too late.

How awful. People don't have to get involved just to call. How very sad.

Thats what i hate most about people. Is most say they mind their own busniess when something bad happens, but they really don't any other time. If i ever heard loud hits or fighting my butt would be on the phone for them to do a wellness check. I dont care how i may look to neighbors. I'm not an azz and won't let someone maybe get beat. And i would want someone to call for me if they thought I needed it.

That is so sad and tragic. Sadly it happens far too often. Women in these situations are afraid to leave because they fear he will kill them or their family members and in the end they lose their life. It is terrible that there are monsters like that out there. You did the best you could.
