Control is what fuels abusers. When they perceive any challenge as a threat to their control, reasoning with them becomes impossible. Understanding this dynamic is vital for escaping abusive situations. Identifying the warning signs and reaching out for support is the essential first step in reclaiming your strength. 💜

Children exposed to a domestic abuser show the same pattern of activity in their brains as soldiers exposed to combat (Professor Eamon McCory).

This is why we must do much more to protect children and stop domestic and sexual abusers 💣

There is no protection. Common for domestic violence cases.

A Judge Ordered Him to Stay Away From Her. Police Say She Was Found Dead in His Apartment Anyway.

Trigger Warning

A court order was supposed to protect 27-year-old Nyesha Tranae Walden-Hatcher.

Police say it didn’t.

Officers responded to a 911 hang-up call just after 3 a.m. at an apartment in Northwest Washington, D.C.

When they entered the residence, investigators say they found Walden-Hatcher inside with a fatal injury. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Authorities say the man accused in the case — Tyjuan Bazemore, 35 — already had an open domestic violence case involving Walden-Hatcher, and a judge had reportedly ordered him to stay away from her.

Despite that order, police say Walden-Hatcher was later discovered dead inside his apartment.

After the incident, authorities say Bazemore fled the area and traveled to Connecticut before being located and taken into custody by a U.S. Marshals fugitive task force.

He has since been returned to Washington, D.C., where he now faces a homicide charge.

For many advocates, cases like this raise a heartbreaking question:

What happens when someone violates a court order meant to protect a victim?
