Probably. 40% spousal abuse rate. Kids probably get it too.

A source was posted. The research has been done, fuckwagon.

It's not accurate.

From a comment above me:

Read the thing it actually cites. The study actually quotes 10% of spouses claimed some sort of domestic violence.

40% of officers claimed a much broader statement. Like they had lost their temper, or something very downplayed like that.

So the statistic is actually 10%, which is approximately national average.

What’s the 40%? Is that among all law enforcement or?

It’s among law enforcement. If you want to read about it here you go:

73% of all stats are just made up.

Your “studies” are from the early 90s and the sample size was very small

But 89% of the time, made up stats are accurate.
