With a woman killed by someone she trusted every 11 days in Australia, the crisis demands urgent attention. Experts reveal a destructive cycle of abuse—tension, intimidation, escalation, remorse, reconciliation—that traps victims through manipulation and fear. Leaving isn’t a simple choice; for many, homelessness is the only other option, making the decision between danger at home and danger outside a false one. Blaming victims or linking abuse to economic hardship shifts responsibility to the wrong party. Hanson’s comments, coming from a figure with a history of targeting marginalized communities, deepen isolation and undermine victims’ safety. The truth is clear: perpetrators are always to blame, and support systems must be strengthened—not weakened—to protect those suffering.
