Unfortunately this is a classic case of a young mother moving forward with her life, away from the violence, only to be stopped in cold blood! This is intimate partner violence escalating to the ultimate power and control, murder.
The estranged husband now in jail planned with his parents to abduct and silence the mother of his children. Notice the words at the top "leave" car keys" cell phone" hold her captive" and threatened to kill her." He carried out his plan to kill her.
As I am writing this Summer Inman's body has been found. Police are currently processing the crime scene "just off of U.S. 33 about 6/10 of a mile into Athens County, just outside of Hocking County," in Ohio. The Logan Police Department did an excellent job in alerting the community and keeping the search going on this case.
May she rest in peace. Prayers to her three children and family.
If Summer's determination to leave is not a wake up call to anyone ending their abusive and or stalking relationship without preparing the Evidentiary Abuse Affidavit and video before they announce it is over, think again!
Once you are threatened, hit, stalked, questioned in a controlling way, a second chance to save your life, is no longer an option.
“If you are reading this and find yourself in a similar situation, know that there are measures you must take before announcing the end of your relationship. These safety precautions can be found in the book, "Time's Up: A Guide on How to Leave an Abusive and Stalking Relationship" by Susan Murphy Milano. Don't take things into your own hands without expert guidance.” (Mothers Are Vanishing)
I cannot stress enough, if you are in a relationship that has a history of violence, simply mustering up the courage to confront the person and say it is over, without the proper tools, can cost you, your life!
The book "Time's Up A Guide on How To Survive and Abusive and Stalking Relationship" is the prescription, if you will, that every person must obtain before they announce they are leaving. Below is an example from Chapter 4, one of many unique tools provided in the book. It is available on Amazon.com, or you can purchase via e-book or on a cd.

One of the major reasons women stay in abusive relationships is fear. They are afraid of what will happen to them and their children if they leave. Sadly, their fears are often justified; statistics show that a woman is at the greatest risk for injury when she announces her plans or leaves an abusive relationship.

I just watched a 20/20 yesterday. It was a woman in California. She told the man it was over, it played out EXACTLY like your blog is written and what not to do as it can cause you your life. The man was so angry he killed her, left her in the house and later set fire. I am not sure if she had the affidavit but this lady did record something possibly to a friend and it was voice only and it was barely enough and challenged hard in court, so I am really understanding the need for the video, is the way they presented it on the show. In any case, if she didn't angrily tell him it was over the way she did, I believe she would be alive today had she had some guidance on how to get out safely. Prayers to this mother and her children. very informative post, I hope it reaches the people that NEED this because there are so many women out there in these situations.
