Women's Support Group - Take Back the Night

Basal Barutsky's trial started in October of 2017, just over two years after he murdered three women. He was charged with two counts of first degree murder for Anastasia Kuzik and Natalie Warmerdam and one count of second degree murder in the death of Carol Koletton. A woman is killed by her partner every five days on average,. Women in rural areas are even more susceptible to domestic violence. They are often put at a disadvantage because of traditional moral and religious beliefs in rural areas. Many feel they can't leave an abusive relationship for financial reasons. But they're also afraid to leave because everyone knows everybody else in these areas.
