RE: “Domestic violence: Messy, painful, and ugly part of society” [The Commons, May 16].
This article is full of inaccurate statements. Domestic violence is not a leading cause of injury to women. It's not even in the top 10.
Less than 10 percent of women experienced a domestic violence incident in the past year.
Half of all domestic violence is mutual and, of the rest, half the perpetrators are men and half are women.
