At least 25 women, across northeast Ohio, have been murdered this year, including 5 just this past week and many of those murders are tied to domestic violence.“Domestic homicide is one of the most preventable kinds of homicide,” said Virginia Beckman the Executive Director of Genesis House in Lorain County.
Beckman said Genesis House continued to provide programming and outreach during the pandemic but believes the isolation brought about much of the violence we are now seeing. “Many of these instances, if you trace it back, they weren’t a surprise to almost anybody,” she said, “The writing was on the wall that this is where the relationship was heading.”
