Violent is considered a homicide, suicide and death by firearm. I have seen may cases that involve intimate partner violence. It is sad for all involved. Thank you for the awareness you provide the public and the moment of silence for them. 803-545-4386 I collect all of the data in SC on the “violent” deaths and have for the last nine years.

]]> Comment on Violence against Women and Girls in Haiti: The Enemy Within by Emily Hutto http://www.zontaofcharleston.com/2011/02/violence-against-women-and-girls-in-haiti-the-enemy-within/comment-page-1/#comment-382 Emily Hutto Mon, 14 Feb 2011 21:52:11 +0000 http://www.zontaofcharleston.com/?p=512#comment-382 It's good to see budgets dedicated to directly addressing acid violence issues. The combination of government intervention and awareness-raising media can catalyze an end to this violence. To learn more about acid violence worldwide, follow @FindingFace on Twitter. Finding Face is a documentary film about Tat Marina, one of the better known acid violence survivors in Cambodia. The country's Undersecretary of State, Svay Sitha, forced her into an affair and when his wife found out she stalked Marina and poured acid on her face. To see the trailer, visit www.findingface.org.
