One trend, Two women dead at the hands of a husband

The headlines are as hard to read as they are to believe. A mom, a model both victims of horrific homicides at the hands of “loved ones.”

Effie Ratley, 29, killed in 2007 by her husband Michael Ratley, when he beat her in the head with a hammer as she rested in bed. He was sentenced this week to life in prison for her murder.  According to CNN, “Man goes from heroic husband to hammer-wielding wife killer.

The former swimsuit model Jasmine Fiore, 28, was found Saturday stuffed into a suitcase inside a Dumpster. Her teeth and fingers had been removed. Her ex-husband, Ryan Alexander Jenkins, now wanted for the crime.

In an update to the story, CNN is reporting “Model’s breast implants prove key to identifying body.” According to police investigators, the victim’s Breast implants’ serial number helped identify the body.

As for Return 2 Vendor candidates, hard to overlook these two.

Reading stories like this, it’s hard not to quickly picture the “horrific” injures pop singer Rihanna suffered at the hands, fists actually, of convicted felon Chris Brown.

When will we as a country, a court system and a community stand up and aggressively pursue and prosecute (NO PLEA BARGAINING) those who abuse woman and children?

We are all victimized when we ignore, therefore permit, these types of assaults and homicides to continue.
