Suspect Your Elders
Added 2022-08-10 14:54:00 +0000 UTC“Respect your elders.” It’s something we’ve all heard since we were young. Albert Flick, a 76-year-old US Army veteran from Westbrook, Maine fit the precise mold of the type of individual we’re expected to revere. You’d never know based on appearance alone that this man had an extremely dark & violent past. When a judge gave Mr. Flick another chance at life after years in and out of prison for violent crimes, he started over in a new town where no one knew of his past…but allowing this elderly man to walk free proved to be one of the most costly & deadly mistakes the state of Maine could have ever made.

Glad you are safe now and thank you for advocating for women in abusive domestic relationships. However I will add that men can be victims of violent domestic relationships as well. I have had to pull my Mom off of my Dad whenever she would fly off the handle when she was either high, itching for a fix and/or having a schizophrenic episode. There's also a well known case in the UK of a man named Alex Skeel whose girlfriend almost killed him after 2 years of horrendous torture. Maybe IC can do an episode on that case? Take care and stay safe.

2022-08-12 09:45:33 +0000 UTCThank you for doing this Episode I wish people would would understand that violence against women women is not something we something we should just brush aside that we need to talk more openly about it and help the these women be there for them They're not asking for this Stuff to happen to them it's the violence it's in the minds of the people that are doing it to them Coming from a situation of my own for 8 years it took me to get out of the situation people used to be so cruel and ask me how come it took me so long to get out you you don't know what it takes to get out of a situation like that it's harder than you think and people just don't realize it
