Hey everyone!
I was debating for a long time whether or not to post. I have a friend who is a cop in town but for whatever reason it seems really intimidating to talk to him about it so I figured I would try it this way for anonymity.
I really really don't want to get into too many details so if it sounds vague then I apologize...
My friend is dating a real "winner". He has multiple drug charges and has been shot multiple times. My friend has also had a baby with this guy. A beautiful little girl who was born premature weighing in at 2 pounds 4 ounces.
Due to a recent horrible experience, I found out he hits my friend...HARD. I am TERRIFIED for not only her...but her BABY...it wouldn't take much to seriously injure or even kill this baby...once this baby is back from the hospital, this whole thing can get a whole lot worse.
After this incident I tried to let her know the possible consequences of staying with this guy. This guy has no job. He lost his license. He has no education whatsoever. He's a drug addict and possibly a drug dealer and is a beater. She refused to leave him...saying he's the father of her child and that she had to stay with him for her daughter's sake.
Last week she unexpectedly showed up at my apartment sobbing. I let her in and noticed bruises all over. I asked her if she wanted to go to the police department and she said she was afraid to. She was afraid that once the report was filed, instead of just arresting him, he would be informed of what happened and he would get mad and go after her. She asked if I could ask the cop that I know if this kid would be arrested immediately and have no chance at going after her. I told her I would...and that is why I am posting this. Like I said, for whatever reason, it is too intimidating to ask the cop face-to-face
If I take her to file this report...will this idiot be arrested immediately and have no chance of going after her? Or will they notify him of the report and then he'll have the chance to go after her? Or at least have some kind of a protective order against him so he can't? This guy doesn't have a license...but he has paid people to drive him places. He knows where she lives and there's no doubt he'd have a way to get there. I told her she can stay at my apartment if she is scared (he has no clue where I live...thank God).
This is all so scary and I hope nobody minds my posting this
