Tell Me Ten Words

Wednesday, March 08, 2006

So I had an awful experience yesterday.A few months ago, I heard screaming outside my house and witnessed a man abusing his NAKED wife, so I had to call 911. I had to do it again yesterday, but for much worse reasons. I was getting ready for work when I heard screaming. I ran to my living room window, and I saw the same guy who attacked the woman before---Im guessing she is his wife or girlfriend, because she lives in the house with him, and three small children, a baby, a toddler, and a 5-6 year old boy. The woman was holding a baby in a cartseat, the baby was maybe 7-8 months old. The guy grabbed the carseat and threw it to the ground like it was a bag of trash. He then got down on the ground and started PUNCHING THE BABY. I dont mean slapping it around either, he was full on PUNCHING the baby all over. I freaked out. I ran to get my cell phone, I was shaking like crazy. I called 911 and told them what was happening. The guy stopped hitting the baby. A neighbor came out and got the baby from the car seat--the baby was SCREAMING. The woman then was holding their 2 year old baby in her arms. The man started chasing her, and when he caught up to her, he started punching HER in the face. Everyone was screaming. I didnt go out to help, because if that guy could punch a baby, he could punch me too---so I did what I could, I called 911. I have never seen anything like this before. He is obviously abusive. Ive called 911 for him abusing her before. SHE made the decision to stay with him, even though its obviously a dangerous situation. But CHILDREN do NOT deserve to be around that. The cops arressted the guy but who is to say anything will change?? I would just like to say I dont live in a dangerous neighborhood---everyone on my street are older couples..but these people are just trash. They have cars and junk all in their yard, their kids run around with no clothes on, etc. Ive seen the kids playing outside with NO supervision. I hope this never happens again :(

    Marie: dreadful is the right word for it. Its been a few days and no one has been back, so hopefully the guy will stay in jail, and hopefully the woman and kids will stay gone.

    Rachel: Someone at my work said "Why didnt you go outside and try to help??" I was like 'WHAT?! If that guy could punch a baby, what do you think he would do to a grown woman??" Ill just stay behind the curtain and call 911, thank you.
