Generally these types of people have very reasonable sounding explanations wherein they are the actual victim.

...as opposed to holding violent psychopaths accountable for their actions?

*sigh* I don't have the time (or, right now, the patience) to give you the psych write-up. Let's just leave it at "some people get themselves into fucked up relationships." And some do their best to get themselves out of it too — she gave him the heave-ho in May. He had his brain on the boil from May to August, hunted…

My dad was abusive, to both my mom and all of us kids, but when people meet him, they almost always really like him. He knows how to make a good impression. My friends would always be like, "Your dad is such a cool guy", and then I would wonder if I was just crazy. I mean, I didn't tell a lot of people what he was…

You need to get yourself a proper education in this. It's not a matter of being attracted to violent men — it's a matter of being attracted to men they find interesting, it can be sexual chemistry, it can be any number of things. If you're verging on whining about how you're such a "nice guy" and can't understand why…

this.

gee, what part of 'she was living in Las Vegas and he was living in San Diego' makes this *her* chasing after *him*? How about: why are men so fixated on their "right" to have a certain woman that they think it's ok to rape, beat, and murder her?

I think you mean women, female is an adjective used to describe something such as a human, dog, cat, suspect, patient and so forth. It is typically only used as a noun (particularly in the same sentence as "men") by assholes.

Really? I'm curious about how you can be so sure of that.

Y0u, ma'am/sir, are a complete and utter buffoon. I have read Jezebel for years and am just creating an account now to reply to you. Your complete lack of reading comprehension — and willingness to accuse someone of a horrible insinuation (where absolutely NONE is warranted) — speaks volumes to your (lack of)…

Fuck you, held accountable how? Should we rape them? Beat them? I'm not sure how breaking up with someone is chasing after someone- she wasn't keeping the violent dog at home, she gave it up, you disgusting troglodyte. Fuck off.

Still, he knew they were broken up. Men need to be educated to not beat the shit out of women.

Abusers don't abuse on the first date. Many are charming and seductive, which is an aspect of their manipulation. Abuse starts off small, trivial, then grows like a horrible cancer as they subtly brainwash their victim about the "reason" they are abusing her - which is always her fault, never fixable. If only she…

I'm playing correctly. She's a tiny girl, he did a lot of damage because she's petite and weighs less. He could have done more, because she is petite and tiny.

and tell people he's running from the cops because they won't give him a fair shake.

LOL YES, those domestic abusers have had it too hard for too long.

This comment is offensive on multiple levels, but I do not see anywhere in this article that would lead anyone to believe that she was "chasing after" him.

He pushed the knife into me in some areas such as my hand, ear, and head. He also sawed much of my hair off with this dull knife.

did you miss the part that said they've been broken up since march? she wasn't with him anymore. also, fuck off with your victim blaming bullshit.
