According to Emilee Whitehurst, CEO of Houston Area Women’s Center, there appears to be a “pattern of escalation” in relational violence around the holidays.
On Thursday morning, a woman was fatally shot at an apartment complex on Calhoun Road in South Houston. And on Thanksgiving, another domestic violence case. Deputies say a man approached a vehicle in east Harris County. A confrontation ensued and shots were fired, killing an 18-year-old and a 22-year-old man. As police said the shooter remains at large, this is another example of escalation that ended tragically.
Whitehurst adds that if you fear any type of escalation from a partner, you need to have a safety plan already figured out.Have a plan for how to get to a predetermined safe place.Keep important documents organized so you can grab and go. Returning for those later can be dangerous if the abuser still has access.
