domestic abuse

Once again, this week we were hit with two tragedies that seem to be home grown.

The first one made the news, then stayed in the news for awhile and is still there, that being the pregnant woman who went missing. They finally found her body yesterday and arrested her "married" boyfriend, a police officer with a history of abuse in his past. The second only made the news briefly, that being a man arrested for supposedly killing his wife and kids, then calling the police saying he'd been shot along with them, but only in the leg; please!

A long time friend of mine came to me today, asking me about a house I used to live in. It was strange.
