Item description from seller

[12], 261, [31] pages. Illustrations. About the Author. Discussion Guide. State Coalitions Against Domestic Violence. Planning for Safety. Inscribed and dated by the author on the fep. Mildred D. Muhammad is an Award-Winning Global Keynote Speaker and International Expert Speaker for the US Dept. of State. As a Certified Consultant with the US Dept. of Justice for the Office for Victims of Crime and a Certified Domestic Violence Advocate she has repeatedly been called upon to be a CNN Contributor. Her expertise positions her to make great contributions regarding PTSD ((post-traumatic stress disorder), Suicide and Child Custody. Since she is a Domestic Abuse Survivor herself, she has become a warrior for traveling and speaking on a national and international platform to discuss her life of terror, abuse and heartache, all while promoting Domestic Violence Awareness Prevention. Her authenticity is as remarkable as her unforgettable story of abuse. Mildred makes it her mission to be a vessel of support and healing to all those affected. As the ex-wife of the D.C. sniper, John A. Muhammad, Mildred breaks the silence of the very personal details of her experiences involving fear, abuse and many times, victim-blaming. She includes what it's like to survive all forms of domestic abuse/violence such as verbal, mental, economic, spiritual, stalking and emotional. All "without physical scars". This experience has allowed Mildred's mission to be even more influential and of a greater purpose. She was a victim, who is now a survivor and shares at various conferences, seminars and workshops. The former wife of "D.C. Sniper" John Muhammad, breaks her silence about the domestic violence she suffered during their marriage and the tragic events that occurred after their divorce, which led up to the October 2002 sniper killings in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. Mildred witnessed firsthand John's bizarre behavior after he returned from the Gulf War, but no one-including her family, friends, and local police-took her warnings seriously. Even when John kidnapped their three children for eighteen months, changed their identities and lived with them on the run in Antigua, or when he threatened to kill Mildred, her pleas for help went unresponded to and she was forced to live undercover for eight months in a women's shelter. Everyone knew John as a charming and intelligent man. No one could fathom that he posed a serious threat to Mildred, let alone the ten innocent victims he and his seventeen-year-old accomplice Lee Boyd Malvo would later kill to carry out John's heinous plot to get custody of his and Mildred's children.permanently. What began as a domestic case eventually victimized millions. And it has taken years for Mildred and her children to heal from the fear and psychological trauma they endured. In Scared Silent, Mildred shares her personal story to show how domestic violence devastates entire families, including the children, and hopes that what she reveals will give new insight on this national social ill. The D.C. sniper attacks (also known as the Beltway sniper attacks) were a series of coordinated shootings that occurred during three weeks in October 2002 in the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia. Ten people were killed and three others were critically wounded in the Baltimore-Washington Metropolitan Area and along Interstate 95 in Virginia. The snipers were John Allen Muhammad (aged 41 at the time) and Lee Boyd Malvo (aged 17 at the time), who traveled in a blue 1990 Chevrolet Caprice sedan. Their crime spree, begun in February 2002, included murders and robberies in the states of Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Texas, and Washington, which resulted in seven deaths and seven wounded people; in ten months, the snipers killed 17 people and wounded 10 others. In September 2003, Muhammad was sentenced to death, and in October, the juvenile, Malvo, was sentenced to six consecutive life sentences without p.
