Trembling voice, head down, teary eyes, the fear stamped on his face. Over 30 years of a marriage marked by domestic violence. And brands are not only the body.
"I got my husband all these years and never shot back, never denounced or told anyone. Until six years ago I was beaten every time they charged the mere presence of it at home with the children. After that he fell ill and then I picked up because he had crises of jealousy without reason. A few months ago I leave the house of courage, after he spent all night threatening me with a machete. The last time he assaulted me physically was a few weeks ago, just after the hailstorm. He ran after me with a knife and threatened me. If I called the police, he would kill me. The police came to arrest him and he kept threatening me from inside the jail. When he was released, the judge placed a security measure for him to stay away from me, but he keeps chasing me, threatening me. I needed a neighbor denounced him so I adopt an attitude of not wanting anymore for my life. I'm still absorbing everything, including the impact that such separation is having on my finances because he always maintained the house; always I depended on him. I am psychologically destroyed and regret not having denounced before. The complaint is the best way out, "said the woman, a victim of domestic violence.
