Good point. Just gave this a star so folks will see this. The national hotline warns people immediately that anyone who is worried about their browser’s history should call instead. I’m not sure if the shelter list has incognito.

I’ll be gray, but I am a woman, married 17 years, whose husband is financially abusing me into his compliance. Well, trying to do so. I work part-time as a church secretary and he is in law enforcement. He has been working away from home since December 2014, because of issues with his sergeant here, staying with his…
Diana - I work at a DV shelter in VA so I’m throwing in my two cents. You may want to include whether your resources have a “incognito browsing” option or a way to auto-delete history. Otherwise even clicking on the links may be too risky for a survivor.
Agreed. Much respect to Kristina Laurence; Hardy’s asshat “bro” telling her “you didn’t hear anything” would’ve been enough to silence a lot of people - the fact that she had the guts to come through the way she did makes me applaud her
I’d just like to point out that Kristina Laurence is a goddamned hero. So is Diana Moskovitz, for that matter. But Laurence stood up and said no in the midst of a violent scene, put herself at considerable risk to do, and kept on insisting on telling the truth when it would have been much, much easier, not to mention…
The Illinois Coalition Against Domestic Violence (http://ilcadv.org/index.html) has great resources both for the Chicago Metropolitan area, and the rest of the state as a whole.
I’d argue that nothing new came from the elevator video either. The video showed exactly what was described to the police, but the pictures just made it more real.
No chance. Nothing new came from this. Fantastic reporting, to be sure, but nothing that explosive that we didn’t already know.
I appreciate you posting the info above and inviting everyone to post info for local organizations/shelters. I’m in Charlotte and am so glad this article was published. For help here, go to www.safealliance.org or contact the CRISIS HOT LINE at 704-332-2513 (24/7)
In Denver, SafeHouse Denver operates a 24-hour domestic violence crisis line at (303) 318-9989.
Shitty person surrounds himself with shitty people. Story at 11.
It’s obviously the party line for Hardy’s bros: he pays for drinks and attracts pretty girls; they cover for him. And whenever a football player gets accused of something horrific, wannabe-bros on message boards do the same thing and bring up the entourages’ statements to discredit the victim.
That quote from Marco makes me LIVID. What girl doesn’t want to be thrown into a tile wall, choked, and slammed onto a futon full of guns while her boyfriend threatens to murder her? I’m sure she was in absolute heaven.
Well done Diana. Great follow-up.
Issues aside, chemotherapy is great for weight loss.
Preach! Even the victim tried to gaslight the witness (“that girl is crazy”), but thank glob for that witness who insisted upon telling the story to the cops on the scene so that it’d be documented.
Issues aside, Mussolini made the trains run on time.
No way. No video, no action. Goddell is spineless. And fuck Jerry eternally. What a sad old man doing anything he can to prove he can win a Superbowl without Jimmy Johnson’s players.
I told him I’m getting the fuck out of here ... I heard everything. Marco said, ‘You didn’t hear shit and she wanted it all.’ I then ran out of the apartment.
