@agoldenway: A 2008 study published in the Journal of Emergency Medicine examined 933 women across homicide, attempted homicide, and abused comparison groups. The study also found that 43% of women who were murdered and 45% of women who survived attempted homicide had previously experienced nonfatal strangulation.
