His brother is clearly a piece of crap like he is, but this murderer should have been charged with assault in the first place, his visa/passport/citizenship stripped from him and he should have been sent back to live in his home country. Then his wife and children would have been safe. If he was tried and convicted on the original assault, that should have been enough to expunge him from the country. There need to be laws where domestic abuse victims have no say about charges, and it should be up to law enforcement and the courts to separate victims from abusers wherever possible. Victims will typically cover for abusers for far too long, so the option should be taken out of their hands. In this situation, simply leaving him was never going to be enough, and the excuse that he was just going to kill her no matter what, is a cop out for any progressive society.

This man Zia was our family’s case worker from AMRC for us immigrating to Australia Adelaide from Iran in 2008. This documentary does not cover his infidelity with multiple women while he was STILL married. His mistress was our neighbour and he used to bring his youngest daughter to our house and he would go next door to see her. The mistress is an ugly woman she never tried to hide it and always was bragging about how he loves her more than his wife to my mum and I remember her taunting his wife and telling her about how she is sleeping with her husband and evil woman. I will never forget her beautiful daughter she would tell me that her dad always beat her mum and them which made me very sad but I was 10 myself did not know how to react. The day he murdered his wife we were getting ready to also attend the celebration but once we go to the hall the police were already there and everywhere was closed off.

I've been recently thinking about the mental, emotional, and physical abuse I suffered as a child. Could my friends tell? Could the teachers tell? My mom worked for the school and was doted on by the nuns who taught us. I was an unaware anorexic starting around age 7 (I still suffer with the disorder at times). I suffered from debilitating panic attacks where I'd hide in the school's bathroom. No one offered to help me. No one even acknowledged the odd behavior till I had a psych break at age 11. Sometimes I'm impressed with what my mind, heart, and soul dealt with but continued to endure and even thrive a little bit. I'm 42, I have no children, never been married, and have trouble making and maintaining friendships. I'm almost 3 yrs sober and doing well.

As a child survivor of Domestic abuse of a mother who did not walk away, I want everyone to know that staying with an angry, abusive, intimidating, violent husband is NEVER the BEST for the children. I’m so sick of this hero shit narrative around women who cannot leave an abusive relationship where innocent bloody children are scarred for life from their inability to walk away from a deadshit. I’m 60 years old and the stain this has left in the life of myself and 5 other humans, who were innocent and unable to get away, is always there and has poisoned our lives. If you cannot walk away from a dangerous man then get your kids away. Give them to a loving, healthy and safe family until you can get your head right. It takes more courage to walk away then to stay. I’m the hero who picked up my children, pregnant with the third and fled a foreign country with them with one suitcase to get them away from an angry psycho control freak.

As a child & an adult who's still suffering as a result of the domestic violence between them which has made its way to me in a profound negative way in adulthood, I know too well what you mean. Feared abused, neglected & oppressed mothers raise children worse than them in every which way possible unfortunately. By staying not only they put themselves in jeopardy but more so the very children they claim to love, care & protect with their lives 😔 its got nothing to do with religion, gender, culture, age etc but the mindset, personal ideologies & choices parents make when they are raising their children coupled with genetics.

You are 100% correct, but where your mums circumstances the same as yours? Like did she speak the language in the country she was in? Was she educated enough to get up and leave? These are all factors that force women to unfortunately stay and carry on enduring abuse. I used to moan about other things about my mum, but now that I'm older I think, with some things, she just didn't know any better. She wasn't educated she was forced to do house work as a kid, she got married off at 20 and sent to UK where she didn't speak the language and the list goes on. So I get you might be angry because of what you went through, but mum's are only human too.

And, why didn't others - both within and outside of the family - do or say something about this?! In small towns, some people stopped doing business with a local pizza place because the man verbally degraded his wife and somewhat financially cheated his young wait staff out of their tips. We each must play an active (brave) role in affecting change.

[@kintsukuroi6300]

@@genkiferal7178 The abuse/victim relationship is like two pieces of the puzzle they fit together and a co-dependency is what holds the bond ; that is why early in the relationship when the red flags appear the victim will downgrade, excuse and forgive the violence. A predator abuser will NEVER be attracted or pursue a confident, emotionally and financially independent person equally the victim is a person with low self-esteem, lack of direction in life and is attracted for a person that will lead her , guide her and be her center. At this point of the race we call life we have seen these stories time and time again; there needs to be A SHIFT IN HOW THIS IS APPROACH. For instance, why partners in a domestic abuse situation DECIDE to have children and bring vulnerable beings into an environment of chaos, abuse and fear WHERE IS THE COMPASION? Thus, society has to determine how to deal with couples that are in a domestic violence relationship and are plan to have children because they are the COLLATERAL DAMAGE.

To anyone here watching this and knowing they are in an abusive relationship please find your local resources and use them. There are domestic violence services like shelter, counseling, childcare, clothing and more. Shelters are usually houses that are safe houses that people don't know the location of. So you have to reach out to a local domestic violence organization to get into a shelter. Sometimes you will be bussed to a different city. Please remember everything you have pretty much can be replaced. Don't take make up, clothes etc etc. Take a journal of you have it, a phone if you can, your personal art but none of that is as important as you getting out. It doesn't matter how old you are, what you look like or who you are, you deserve peace and do not need to stay in this toxic place. This person will not change and they do not deserve any more chances. Get out and get out now. Take your children and go to a domestic violence place. They will call the police, get you to a medical professional, help you with shelter, show you how to fill out legal papers. Yes it's scary, you'll feel all alone. But that's what makes you brave, you have the courage to do this. Don't think about the immediate life changes as much as start envisioning your peaceful radiant future after this whole mess gets fixed. No one can make you do this. You have to do this for yourself. Now go. You are your strongest advocate for you and your children. May you be blessed.
