The Victim Assistant 🐼

George Zimmerman back in a Florida court today for felony Agg Assault and two other misdemeanors  involving an incident where he allegedly pointed a gun at his girlfriend and strangled her ( NOT choked her like the lawyer said in court).

Being abusive is like riding a bike once you learn how you will never forget it. Some abusers that seek treatment do so because they are forced to by the justice system. The only success they will have is learning how to MAYBE control outbursts or not have so many of them. Chris Brown is not being held accountable which is another reason abusers continue to abuse. He mocks us by not completing community service from his incident with Rihanna and violates probation by assaulting someo...
