is this post a joke and someone using satire to lighten up the issue or what ?? If serious, i cannot believe that anyone would indicate the are concerned that reporting abuse could result in the victim possibly losing their good life. Abuse is a felony criminal act, tucker admits he did the act and called it a tussle. I am shocked at some of the posts that paint a totally different image many had of tucker of being a pillar of the community. Other posters tell us tucker is a bully, a belittler, someone that does no work etc. As for me, i have no idea. But rest assured, there will be no winners here. It is factual that abuse is not usually a one time occurance but goes on sometimes for years. And usually when children are abused by a father, the mother also suffers abuse.
And using the reasoning that no one was killed, it would only take a few minutes to come up with 50 cases where the abuser, usually the father, killed his wife, the wife killed the husband, the abuser killed the child or perhaps the child killed the father. Open any newspaper on any day !!!
