Zero Tolerance for domestic violence

Hello Friends,

This is my first blog, who knows maybe ill stick with it hehe.

So recently a friend of mine was murdered. She was a kind and careing soul that didn't deserve the fate the world gave her. She was in my nursing course and was all of the students uni mum. Whenever we needed help she was always there dispite having to take care of her 4 younger children and care for he ill husband.

But even though she was so kind her husband turned out to be the killer. He her when he became very ill and sufford from many a week. A horrible situation to be in, but that is still no excuse to turn on the person who loves you and nurses you better. The husband was out on bail when he killed my friend, he was on bail after serving a very short sentance for chocking her. 

When my friend found out he was out (after testifying that he was a threat to her and their children) she feared for her life completely and also her children. She had such a great network of friends and also had a private chat for her to hell out if things where dangerous. but even though she had that support her fait was sadley set.

The husbaned after stabing my friend to death killed himself, and to be honest even though i would like to see him locked up, i would like to see him in the ground more.

The children are not physically hurt.. but I can only imagine how broken they would feel on the inside they where in the house when it happened, I'm not sure if they saw him kill her but they definetly found the bodies before running to the nieghbours house for help. They are now orphaned and living with there grandparents thankfully, but there parents where not wealthy people, so there life is going to be very draining. My prayers go out to them and their grandparents.

I live in Australia and for many years I've heard stories from my aunty (who works at a place for women who suffer from domestic violence) that the justice system for domestice violence is comepletely unjust, and after this experience I now fully understand how bad the legal system is, the judge who let the man out on bail went against my friends word and let an evil man walk free. If any of you have a friend in a similar situation make sure you give them as much security as you can. and for any of you who dont understand why a women is scared to speek up about an abusive relation ship heres the reason why.
