Ongoing Prayer Request for Battered Wife with Homicidal Hubby

[Quix]

I have a net friend of 12+ years in the Western half of the USA . . . raped from toddlerhood on by step-father . . . jumped from frying pan into fire marrying similar man {as usually happens} . . .
.
He's tried to kill her about 7+ times.
.

Last night late . . . he tried strangling her yet again . . . she is one tough bird and fought him off . . . left for a walk along the road with cut lip and bruised eye from hubby's skills . . .
.
Policeman drives alongside and asks if she's OK. She insists she is--usual pathology showing, there.
.
Policeman sees her damaged face, asks her name.
.
She gives it.
.
Policeman says: "OK. We know your situation. That's it. He's going to jail."
.
She pleads no. Policeman thankfully will not listen. Hubby's in jail. Due TO BE LET OUT TODAY. I pray not in the AM giving her time to leave etc. etc. Prayers for that would be great.
.
Police say they will have him on a 30 day restraining order to not be near her. THAT WILL NOT stop this man. He can be super sweet one minute and a raging homicidal maniac the next. He's not apt to respond kindly to being locked up overnight in jail--restraining order or not.
.
So, would appreciate prayer that Mrs T successfully gets out of Dodge ASAP this morning. She has minimal stuff--he wouldn't even buy her a coat and stole what money she could make from her animal care.
.
A church is evidently going to help her get out. I hope they can give her some cash to get to her daughter's in CA.
.
Anyway--I haven't asked for prayer hereon before but her life is worth it. And after several years of trying to get her to leave--it looks like it COULD happen today.
.
Thanks in advance.

Sorry, I don't recall which of you on the Alt Realities ping list are inclined to pray to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob for help . . . but my friend could sure use it.

Prayer alone won't solve this, she needs to get away from this guy, fast.

[Polly Ticks]

Prayers for Mrs. T's safety, for her to find a way to her daughter's place, and to a support group and/or therapist.

Agreed. Been working as hard as possible toward that for several years. And years before that from her dad, now deceased--leaving her not a penny out of $20 million.

She has had an incredible degree of 'Stockholm Syndrome' and an intense degree of worthlessness long injected into her being by her dad. Both would persistently sabotage her leaving, when it came right down to doing it. She SOUNDS like she's finally over the line and will do it. I pray so.

This is the closest she's come to leaving and  SOUNDS LIKE it MAY happen today--if--everything goes as planned.

Thanks for your concern.

AMEN! AMEN!

Thanks Big.

Riiigghht (I say sarcastically)

And the next time he assaults her, she should do what? Waive that restraining order in his face and say "You can't hit me. The judge says so"?

Prayers for her.

Thanks Big for your caring, perceptivity and prayers.

Blessings, to you.

Arm her?


Just a thought?

I think she hid his gun.

She has a knife on her MOST of the time. She's had it at his throat a time or two when he attacked her.

But her screwy psychology can get in her way of protecting herself still far too much.

Prayers up. People like this just make me sick.

Tell her: God don't make no junk, honey. -Forget who said that originally.

Thanks.

Will pass it along when her computer is up and running again in whatever new location.

She still sounded like she was done and leaving 2+ hours ago. Haven't talked to her since then.

Absolutely Indeed.

She's a really very incredible person with a big heart for others and for animals.

Thanks thanks.

Bingo.

Bingo.

UPDATE:

She's got her stuff loaded in one car and another vehicle is on the way for the rest of it.

Yea. Local people are helping.

She is in the process, finally, of leaving.

Yea!

Thx thx.

@Quix

I hope people in the car coming will stay with her until she drives away from that house. 
She should not be alone in case the assaulter comes there to likely kill her.  And, I hope the assaulter doesn't find out where she went today.

She has no vehicle. The people helping her will drive her away.

Everyone in the know is dedicated to protecting her and her privacy from hubby.

It is a small town, however.

The police were known as his buddies--along with pastors who seemed to not believe her--though she rarely said anything to anyone locally for years. I guess that changed.

She sounded up-beat--in great contrast to last night/early morning.

She said she'd give me a call when she got settled in whatever half-way situation they are providing for her. If not, I'll call late afternoon.

Her horrible father . . . a 'leader' in a well known secret org . . . was in tight with sheriff and police and pastors. Sigh. Sick. Sick. Sick.

Thanks tons for your concern and prayers.

[Gefn]

Oh I'm speechless and sad.. I've had to get a restraining order once too.

Prayers for her.

Thanks much.

She really appreciates the prayers and people who pray and repeatedly asks me to thank you.

[Quix]

SHE'S OUT SAFELY!

She is concerned about if they keep him over the weekend--feeding the animals . . . and the wood stove heating his house and rental spaces upstairs only she and he have access to or know how to run.

There is a chance they will let him out by 17:00. He can take care of such things . . . if he's sane enough, to.

Anyway--the most progress in more than 10 years.

Thanks for all the prayers.

Never got to see this thread as the server had crashed before I did. I misinterpreted the situation when I read of it elsewhere, (my apologies for that), but you are all in my prayers nonetheless.

[Gefn]

@Quix you said she got out right before the server crashed.

Can you give us an update if you have one? I've been praying for her.

[Gefn]

Do we have a prayer ping list? If so who runs it?.

SOOOO glad GOPBR is back! Sigh!

@Smokin Joe
@Freya

THANKS TONS FOR THE PRAYERS.

Things got greatly more complicated . . . and insane . . . so much so . . . others were not the only ones wondering where truth and fiction started and stopped.

I've never caught her in a lie to me though I know she's lied to police about hubby's battering.

And, I have talked to pastors and police at other times enough to know that the abuse has been painfully real and physically damaging to a horrible degree.

Anyway--hubby in jail suffered a burst aneurysm on/in his heart IIRC and supposedly has a few more that will need later treatment.

So, OF COURSE . . . she rushed to his side--200 miles or so away at Hosp he was lifeflighted to . . . with plans to move her stuff back to his home yada yada yada.

I read her the riot act up one side and down the other.

She's been silent for several days.

I did call the hospital and verified that hubby is there in ICU.

She knows that I don't relate well to her silence in such situations . . . she tends to get silent when she doesn't like what I'm apt to say or when she's making crappy choices, doing crappy things.

Anyway--her being raped routinely by step-dad from toddler-hood on up--I really do believe that, actually--has left her with tons of ATTACHMENT DISORDER scars, dynamics, dysfunctions, brain damage. She HAS made LOT of progress over the last 12 years but there is tons more to make before she's out of the woods.

And I don't know that optimally sane is very close at hand, at all.

Sigh.

Thanks BIG for the prayers.

I don't know of a prayer ping list. Am willing to start one if folks want to be on it. Just let me know.

THX THX.


Now to find out what happened to GOPBR!!!!
