Domestic violence and abusive relationships are a real problem and people need to speak up more, about how to get out of those situations. About how they personally got out of those situations. My mom is a DV survivor so when she heard this she cried and talked to me about it because this girl was not much younger than me.  He probably didn't start out that bad. He probably started with something like controlling her and she ended up being killed. I don't understand people like him. And I'm glad he's in prison. If you are in an abusive relationship, please seek help with leaving before things get worse. You deserve better no matter what he or she makes you believe.
