I dunno if it'd be worthwhile to at least go in, with her family, to the police station to talk to them about the best options... if her family and friends all try to intervene - that could be of help.
If anything, the police could stop by, check on her.. handcuff him in a car while they're talking to her so that she doesn't feel "at risk"...if anyone can get her & the kids to a domestic violence shelter, it'd be them! that'd be her first step.. and then she could have the shelter help with everything else....
of course, she'd have to go down under for a while so he can't find her.
or maybe have her boss call in and say something like "we really need you here, can you come in and work tomorrow" and see if she at least calls her boss back!? last thing her boyfriend is going to want to do is lose that paycheck she's got...
the least that can be done is a police checkup...
then again, for all you know, that man's voice saying "stop calling here she can't talk to you no more".. might mean he already killed her...but someone's gotta worry about the kids in the picture here!! even if *she* is a lost cause.. someone's got to help the kids!
the least that should be done is a police check up on her and the kids! |
