My Story – Mandy

My 2nd marriage was hell. I was abused in every way for the 7 1/2 years we were married. He continued to verbally abuse me through letters and phone calls while he was in prison. He stalked, harassed and physically and sexually abused me when he got out. Just not as much as he had before going to prison, but he still abused me. I haven’t seen him for a year and a half. He still tries to contact me and told his friends he was gonna hurt me again. They turned around and told me. I told the police and now I’m happy to say I’m finally protecting MYSELF and fighting back against Domestic Violence! LOVE YOURSELVES LADIES!!!
