abuse

After our discussion of domestic violence last week, I knew of someone who was arrested for beating his girlfriend. I was fairly surprised but thinking about it now, their relationship is based on sex, and they always argue. I don't think anyone knew that he beat her, but had always heard them arguing. It was really scary when my friend told me that he saw him getting arrested. The girls that I have talked to were also surprised but have said they are afraid to be around him even though they don't know him that well. I wonder how long they have been dating and how long he has been abusing her. I would never ask, just because I don't know them personally. I am glad someone called the cops though.
