Jacqui Frost和Emily,一个化名,在怀孕期间在严重的家庭暴力中幸存下来,这一时期虐待风险上升。 Jacqui Frost and Emily, a pseudonym, survived severe domestic violence during pregnancy, a period when abuse risk spikes. Jacqui出生18天后,由于从她母亲和赛车传奇人物Peter Brock那里学到的防御性驾驶技巧,她的伙伴Andrew Caust逃离了高速汽车袭击;Caust在法院缺勤三年合法拖延后,于2025年4月入狱,致使Jacqui在可能获得2026年假释之前担心她的安全。 Jacqui, 18 days from giving birth, escaped a high-speed car attack by her partner, Andrew Caust, thanks to defensive driving skills learned from her mother and motor racing legend Peter Brock; Caust was jailed in April 2025 after a three-year legal delay marked by court absences, leaving Jacqui fearful for her safety ahead of his potential 2026 parole. Emily,后来怀孕16周和34周,遭受其伴侣Lachlan John Smith的强奸、胁迫和身体虐待。 Lachlan John Smith在判刑时毫无悔恨。 Emily, then 16 and 34 weeks pregnant, endured rape, coercion, and physical abuse from her partner Lachlan John Smith, who showed no remorse at sentencing. 这两起案件都反映了全国的数据显示,每7名孕妇中就有1人在怀孕期间遭受伴侣暴力,每8名孕妇中就有1人在怀孕期间首次遭受虐待,这突出表明迫切需要加强保护和及时伸张正义。 Both cases reflect national data showing that one in seven pregnant women experience partner violence and one in eight face abuse for the first time during pregnancy, underscoring the urgent need for stronger protections and timely justice.
