CHILDREN SUFFERING: Margaret Sampson-Browne
ST AUGUSTINE
The nation is in pain as people are prisoners in their homes and women, men and children are being abused daily, says head of the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service Victim and Witness Support Unit, Margaret Sampson-Browne.
More than 300 women have been murdered as a result of domestic violence for the period 2005 to 2015.
Children are suffering— a six-year-old boy was so badly sexually assaulted by his own father that the child was no longer anal-retentive.
A man was abused by his wife who took a heater and held it against his chest, burning the impression of the heater into him.
