A spokesman for Haven, the center for domestic and sexual violence, Tracy Thomas , doesn't know the history of this relationship, but says she has advice for anyone who is in an abusive relationship.
"If you're at the point where you know that you need to get out where you're in fear, you need to put a safe plan together so that you and those around you are safe when you're trying to leave the relationship," says Thomas.
Thomas says there is help available.
