Outstanding analysis. Thank you Laura. The breakdown of the police call out is fabulously detailed and hits every nail on the head. I want to listen carefully to the refrain “trust your gut”. The police were CONFUSED because they were being manipulated AND manipulative. They tried to rush to avoid paperwork and an arrest. They were totally wrong-headed in a situation that was actually crystal clear. They had FOUR supposed professionals who behaved ( mostly ) like completing inept 4 year olds. I’m astonished. The law CLEARLY states a predominant abuser construct. It’s about the best descriptor of Brian ( a text book coercive controller ) ever. Yet the cops completely missed it. Horrendous.
