shayla Tilton Survivor Sister Story

 

im not very good at writing but its worth a shot. My name is Shayla Tilton and I am 26, my husband is 47. He is currently wanted for felony assault and he is on the run. Im constantly in fear for my life and not sure what to do. I recently had to have stitches above my eye and 8 staples in my head from where he repeatedly hit me with a pistol. This is the first time that I have followed through and wanted to press charges. Im just afraid.
