## Resource

A man with 31 prior convictions, including dozens of traffic offenses, has pleaded guilty to harassing his wife with 708 voice messages and threats—including promises to kill her—over just two days in January. The abuse extended to calls to her sister and Facebook messages. His defense cited alcohol addiction as a factor, while the victim, now in a new relationship, shared how deeply it affected her. The judge called the behavior “very serious and very concerning,” considering consecutive prison terms, and ordered additional reports before sentencing, which is set for September 23rd. He apologized, saying he “slipped off the rails.” Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
