59. Her actions/reactions/refusal to charge

... Etc say so much about HIM.

She couldn't be the textbook abused wife if she didn't have an abusive asshole husband.

It's painfully plain to anyone who's worked with domestic violence survivors what their marriage is probably like. Sad that it was never brought to the jury's attention in the Martin trial - Z is obviously an insecure bully with a bad temper & delusions of grandeur.

Sigh.
