那個被殺的妻子真是不會保護自己。 她都跑出來了， 還被他抓回去， 還這麽卑微地問 “taking me back so you can beat me to death?” 就是說在女方逃出家門前他已經打過她了， 而且還打得不輕。 她應該立刻報警， 如果沒有手機， 就去求助鄰居。 無論怎樣， 就是不能讓他再抓回去。
大約十一， 二年前， 我們這個縣也發生過一起白男殺害華人妻子的案件. 女方是北京人， 有個CS的碩士學位的， 因為要照顧年幼的兒子， 她一直當家庭主婦。 她的丈夫也是長期有暴力傾向， 妻子常向一個美國女友訴說， 女友勸她離開， 她為了孩子有一個完整的家不舍得離開。 這些我都是從華盛頓郵報報道看來的。
遇到有暴力傾向的配偶， 男友， 我們都必須保護好自己的

LOS GATOS — A man has been jailed and charged with murder after he apparently confessed to strangling his wife with a rope and dumping her body in the Santa Cruz Mountains, according to authorities and court documents.
John Maxey Yeager, 56, has been charged with one count of murder and a count of felony false imprisonment in connection with the death of 40-year-old YingYing “Dawn” Yu, according to police and a criminal complaint filed Tuesday, one day shy of Yeager’s 57th birthday.
Yeager was being held without bail in the Santa Clara County Main Jail, and was arraigned Tuesday afternoon.
During the brief arraignment in a San Jose courtroom, Yeager was appointed legal counsel from the county public defender’s office. Judge Audra Ibarra ordered that Yeager remain in jail without bail at least until his next court hearing, scheduled for March 15.
Ibarra also approved no-contact protective orders for four minors; based on the court discussion, they are presumably the children of Yeager and the victim. A fifth unnamed person was also granted a protective order from Yeager.
Yeager’s only words in court were in response to Ibarra asking if he understood the conditions of the protective orders: “Yes I do.”
A missing-persons investigation was launched, and officers obtained home-security video from a neighbor of the couple’s Hershner Court home, the affidavit states. Police added in a news release Tuesday that the investigation turned up evidence of a domestic-violence altercation on Dec. 31.
In footage from about 9:35 p.m. that night, the victim could be seen running out of her home and yelling for help, with Yeager chasing and catching up to her, according to police. The two went out of view of the neighbor’s security camera, and reappeared with the victim walking away from Yeager, who then grabbed her by her shoulders.
The affidavit states that the video showed Yeager physically guiding her back to their home, with the victim repeatedly asking Yeager if he was “taking me back so you can beat me to death?” Yeager is later seen physically blocking the victim's path to a parked car, followed by both people going back inside.
Jail records show that Yeager was arrested and booked into jail on Jan. 11 in connection with the suspected domestic-violence encounter shown in the video footage. Two days later, the affidavit states that during a police interview Yeager “admitted to strangling his wife” to death with a rope the night of Dec. 31, “and then disposing of her body in the Santa Cruz Mountains.”
On Saturday, authorities went to a remote area off Summit Road, which is where investigators determined Yeager had gone to earlier this year. There they found human remains “believed to be that of Dawn Yu.” Those remains were placed in the custody of the Santa Clara County Medical Examiner-Coroner's Office the next day.
The county Department of Family and Children's Services has been summoned to ensure the safety of the couple’s children, police said.
