Police Often Miss Red Flags in Domestic Abuse Cases, and the Consequences Are Deadly
Reveal NewsJUL 2022
Home, a place meant for refuge, has become a graveyard for too many women. Every day, they are murdered by those they trust most—partners and family. This global scourge, fueled by intimate violence and societal neglect, leaves scars far beyond the body. Despite years of awareness, the crisis persists, unyielding, its victims unheard and unsupported. A world that allows this darkness to thrive must answer for its indifference.
The world paints women and girls as uniquely unsafe, but the truth is far more complex—and men and boys often face even graver dangers. While women are most at risk from intimate violence at home, men overwhelmingly suffer violence on the streets. Yet, society dismisses male victims and reinforces a false, harmful narrative. Addressing violence means acknowledging all victims, rejecting bias, and embracing equality in protection and justice.
