Recent Cluster of NH Deaths of 3 Women, 1 Child Were Preceded by Evidence of Domestic Violence

The deaths of three women and a toddler in different parts of the state this month followed a pattern of domestic abuse that’s often predictable and avoidable.
​
All three women were domestic violence victims who spent the last moments of their lives with their abusers, according to police and court records.

In each case, there was evidence of abuse and fleeting opportunities to start over.

“There have been consistent reports about the severity of abuse and the types of abuse that these victims and their children are experiencing,” said Amanda Grady Sexton, director of public affairs for the New Hampshire Coalition Against Domestic and Sexual Violence. “The reports are not further increasing, but the lethality is.”
