Domestic Homicide in South Carolina

Paper Summary:

This paper discusses how domestic violence is a problem due to its magnitude and because of its enduring implications. It examines how abuse does not stop with a single generation and how, sometimes, it rises to what must be seen as almost epidemic levels in a community, such as it has in South Carolina in the past few years. It looks at the definition of domestic violence and provides an overview of some of the key statistics involving domestic violence against women, as well as potential solutions to the problem.

From the Paper:

"Clearly something must be done to improve the chances of women avoiding domestic violence and surviving its potentially lethal affects. Perhaps the most important step that can be taken is to provide more shelters for women seeking to escape violent relationships. One of the hallmarks of violent domestic relationships is that they have become isolated (intentionally by their partners) from their families and friends and even when they decide to make a break from the relationship they often cannot do so because they have no practical means of escape."
