I was reading about Kristie Marie Acosta González's case, and it's so unsettling to think about the level of domestic violence that can happen right behind closed doors. Just knowing it involved her own son is unimaginable. It brings to light the often-hidden dynamics and struggles some families face. It must be incredibly painful for those close to Kristie to reconcile the fact that someone they loved and trusted could be involved in such a horrific event. I've been wanting to discuss how important it is for communities to create safe spaces for those experiencing domestic violence, so they know they're not alone and have somewhere to turn. Her story is a reminder that sometimes there's a deep-seated pain that goes unnoticed until it's too late. My thoughts are with her family and friends as they navigate through this incredibly difficult time.
