Twenty Nine and Counting:Weekend Casualties Intimate Partner Homicides


The site is called www.domesticviolencecrimewarch.com and since Friday, reported deaths in the war on intimate partner homicide was 29 fatalities.

Were some of these murders preventable? The answer is yes!

The victims while still alive believe the verbally or physically abusive person won't really kill them. It is not a victims reality of thinking clearly because their environment has been toxic for a long time. They believe they know the abuser best and feel they have the situation "under control."

Just the other day a respected physician in family practice, now divorced who is going through a heated custody battle requested assistance to have the threats and stalking stopped but felt "they could handle everything else themselves. How untrue those words are for so many victims who end up dead.

Bottom line is with today's technology and careful planning by offenders that goes into murdering victims of intimate partner violence and stalking, you need an effective plan that deals with all aspects of the violence.

When you go to the doctor because you are sick, they usually write the patient a prescription to get better. The same applies to victims of intimate partner abuse, stalking and potential homicide. The prescription, now available on the market is called , Time's Up!




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 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 onAmazon.com, or you can purchase via e-book or on a CD.
