[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sadly, at the end of the day, it’s pretty difficult to help someone who doesn’t want or isn’t ready for help. She could have said so many things to the police or her parents there that she didn’t say. She absolutely did not deserve what happened to her, but people are not mind readers. It’s really easy after the fact to say what you would have done.[/quote]

People who had received proper training in domestic violence and followed that training would have been far more use to her than what she received.  The police knew that an eyewitness had reported seen him hitting her multiple times — no need for mind reading.  The lengths some of you go to defend incompetence is quite something.[/quote]

Gabby told the officer that she hit Brian first, and that he didn’t hit her, he “grabbed her face” in the altercation. It’s really not clear why some of you think that the officers should have disregarded what Gabby herself had to say. They were already giving her a break by not charging her for instigating the whole thing, as she claimed to have done.

Expecting police officers to disregard what a woman has to say is some pretty f’d up thinking. We’ve fought for generations to move beyond that kind of societal norm. [/quote]
