Three deaths per week. 140femmes died at the hands of their spouse in 2009.

figure is certainly down but remains high. 140femmes were killed in 2009 at the hands of their spouse, cons 156 the previous year. "These numbers are a little wind of encouragement but we can not yet speak of satisfaction", responded yesterday Nadine Morano. Secretary of State for the Family who visited the National Clearinghouse on the rights of women and families (CIDFF) also noted that 25 men had died last year at the hands of their spouse. Ten children have also died in these circumstances. This assessment does not include suicides related to domestic violence. According to a study published by a firm specializing in the prevention of such violence, 232 victims have their day in 2009 and 46agresseurs. Deaths related to domestic violence so far exceed the 400. Even if they are not themselves victims of strokes, children are frequently "collateral victims". 60% of children who witness domestic violence suffer from posttraumatic stress. With the risk for some of them to reproduce such scenes in their relationship. This is also the theme of the last official campaign of prevention. After a clip TV broadcast in September, featuring a boy and a girl who play the dinette and begin to reproduce parenting a violent argument, a new poster will be distributed and posted on the Internet in information centers. To fight against domestic violence a crime of psychological violence was established this summer. Judges can also become an order of protection even before the victim does not complain. In its approach, the victim may be assisted by an association, which must be "qualified" under the law. But legal experts worry about who will refer to these associations. "We've had no response" Nadine Morano on this point, said, disappointed, Mary Petot, Director CIDFF of Nanterre, who would have liked more information.
