What started as a panicked plea for help in\u00a0<\/span>Proctorville<\/span><\/b>\u00a0turned into a disturbing story of\u00a0<\/span>violence, fear, and misplaced loyalty<\/span><\/b>\u00a0\u2014 where a woman admits she lied to deputies out of devotion and \u201c<\/span>street code<\/span><\/b>.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When officers first responded, the woman said she had simply fallen down the stairs while carrying laundry. Deputies noted her visible bruises and bleeding hand but accepted her account when she\u00a0insisted\u00a0she wasn\u2019t hurt by anyone.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

But over the next two days, the truth came out. Deputies were called back repeatedly \u2014 each time uncovering\u00a0<\/span>more bruises, new injuries, and a more horrifying account<\/span><\/b>.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

She finally admitted she had been\u00a0<\/span>beaten, choked, hit with a plastic tote lid, and run over twice with a truck<\/span><\/b>\u00a0by her husband after a series of violent arguments. Tearfully, she told deputies she was\u00a0<\/span>\u201csorry for lying\u201d<\/span><\/b>\u00a0but explained she didn\u2019t want to \u201cput anyone in jail\u201d because\u00a0<\/span>\u201cthat goes against the street code.\u201d<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The abuse continued even after that admission \u2014 with the husband allegedly\u00a0<\/span>grabbing her by the hair, punching her in the ribs, and choking her again<\/span><\/b>\u00a0when she tried to leave. Deputies documented bruises on her chest, arms, and back.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When officers tried to place her in a domestic violence shelter, they were told it was full. She refused medical treatment and said she planned to leave the home on her own.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cStreet Code\u201d Can Be Deadly<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n

This is a\u00a0heartbreaking example of how \u201c<\/span>street code<\/span><\/b>\u201d \u2014 the unwritten rule to stay quiet and handle things privately \u2014 can keep victims trapped in abuse.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

No loyalty or code is worth your life.\u00a0If someone\u2019s choking you, hitting you, or running you over with a car, that\u2019s not love \u2014 that\u2019s violence.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
