Ep. 77: Will He Kill You? The Warning Signs You Need to Know That an Abuser Is Heading Toward Homicide

Statistics tell us that five women every single day will be murdered by their male intimate partners. EVERY DAY. Until we can do a podcast that's called, "How to Not Murder Your Partner" and trust that abusers will listen to it, we have this: the warning signs of homcide. If it can be predicted, it can be prevented (hopefully). If we can lessen victim pool for wannabe murderers out there, it's the best defense we have for the current moment.  Jenna and Amanda break down the nine warning signs of imminent homicide and what to do if you're seeing this happen with your partner. We also talk about the Danger Assessment tool to help you gauge how much danger you're currently in (sometimes, it's honesly hard to see if when you're in it) and something called VineLink.com that can alert you when a perpetrator is released from jail.  Do you have a story you think we need to discuss or a guest we should have on? Visit us at ToxicthePodcast.com and tell us all about it.  Please help us spread this conversation further by sharing an episode of Toxic with a friend, your dentist, a random stranger in line at the grocery store, etc., by following us on your favorite podcast platform or social media, or by leaving us a review. We appreciate you.
