An Increase in Domestic Violence.

One thing about summer - domestic violence seems to be on the rise.  Understanding domestic violence is the first step in trying to prevent it.  Acts of violence may include battery, assault, sexual battery and assault, stalking, false imprisonment, kidnapping, etc.  If these acts result in injury or worse there is a valid case for domestic violence.

In Florida the (CADV) Coalition Against Domestic Violence reported that there were more than 100,000 cases in the state in the latest reported year of 2014.  You know that number will probably continue to increase.  By the way, an adjunct to this is child abuse and anyone who fails to report it is subject to a hefty fine plus imprisonment.
