Male victims of domestic violence

Yes men too can be victims. One of the most shocking stories of male victims are that of Alex Skeel. He was brutally abused by his girlfriend and the Mother of his 2 children. He was starved, beaten, isolated and stabbed for 9 months. Then one night his girlfriend almost stabbed him to death. Neighbours heard him scream and phoned Police. One Police Officer suspected the unthinkable and questioned Alex. After a while Alex broke down and told him about the abuse. The girlfriend was eventually arrested, trialled and sentenced to 7 years in prison.

DV is a worldwide problem and one thing the world don’t need are fake victims. False allegations have been used against others to take revenge on that person. Such false allegations results in job losses, ruined reputations. The victims of these false allegations are often found guilty by public opinion before they are even put on trial. Even after the allegations are proven to be false these victims struggle to get their lives back again. Most of the time the person who made the false allegations never face the criminal court.
