As a survivor of domestic violence I believe there should be much more education within the judicial austen regarding this issue and rigid punishments with no plea bargains for abusers...

judges, probation officers and other professionals should be required to learn about these abusive, controlling mean (biggest percentage are men anyway). After reading "Why Does He Do That" by Lundy Bancroft I was amazed to find out abusers fool judges, probation officers, etc. because they're so good at their sick game!!!!

I survived & I still have to deal with the worries due to there not being strict laws that protect us & our children. No one shoukd have to live in fear.

Domestic violence laws in Michigan are pathetic. How many victims must die or be permanently disabled before we say enough?

Put a stop to letting these people get away with domestic violence! It shouldn't take someone getting killed to finally lock them up.

A survivor now I was almost killed by my abuser... And he never faces consequences and a PPO is just a piece of paper... Useless

It is rediculious what 1st and 2nd time offenders get. I am a survivor of severe DV. My dear friends daughter is still in the hospital unable to hear out of her ear or see out of one eye! Yet, the abuser is already out of jail 2, mind you 2 days later.. Let loose before even her physical injuries are healed, little lone her mental issues. This must stop. Too many are dying due to this "slap on the wrists" of $500-$1500 fines and from 30 days to 6 mos max time, which always get reduced to just anger management and 30 days or less! STOP THE MADNESS OF ABUSE, CHANGE THE LAWS FOR STRICTER SENTENCES TO LET THEM KNOW THIS WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!!!
