Other questions

I kept thinking about using battered woman syndrome as self-defense and here are some more questions:

How did this happen? Did you hu*****and hit you first or attempt to hit you? Or, were you in fear that he could hit you so that you used the bloom to resist? If you answer yer to these questions you may have a defense of self-defense, especially if you can prove that he abused you before. To claim self-defense, you have to show evidence that you were in honest and reasoanble belief that he was going to hit you. Even if the prosecution can establish the case this defense may get you off the hook. The key is to convince the jury that your belief was honest and reasonable and the danger was imminent. Your credibility and your hu*****and's abusive history are very important.
