In domestic violence, there's also a form of violence that leaves no outward marks. Psychological trauma to the victim is as bad as the outward injuries. If the husband says, "I'm going to kill you while you're sleeping," then how does the wife prove that to LE? It's her word, and officers usually won't arrest someone on another's word.
"If you leave me, I'll hunt you down and kill you." "Who's gonna believe you? All I have to do is tell them that you're crazy and off your meds." "I'll take the kids so far away from you that you'll never see them again, and I'd like to see you try to file for custody when you haven't got a penny to your name."
All forms of psychological terrorism within a marriage, the only remedy against which is to take the kids, get the hell out of dodge, and then file for an order of protection (and in my opinion, invest in Ruger).
Venus did what she should have done. I'm sure that courts often hear, "He/She said he/she would kill me if I left." In this case, it looks to be true.
What else could she have done, though? You can't live your life in a cage. You can't keep your kids in a prison. Whether Doug got her on April 26th or later, he would have eventually gotten her. I hope to god the courts NOW see through him, take Venus's words as the truth, and don't let him anywhere near those precious girls.
