Thread. His adult daughter was terrified of him. When her house was listed for sale he deliberately booked an inspection so he could intimidate her walking through her home. He turned up at his ex wife’s yoga class, where she saw him behind her in the mirror. #coercivecontrol
These are examples coercive control. Coercive control is a legal form of abuse.
When Olga reported him turning up to the class the police said she was trying to get “advantage in the family court.” @custodypeace @MattsJane @CCCBuryStEd @moonscapecat @LeighGoodmark @melwojtas

John Edwards had abused 6 former partners & 8 children. There were restraining orders on him. But he was given no jail time & allowed a gun license. Whilst in the family law court the Independent Children’s lawyer insisted he be allowed to pick up his son & take him to school
thereby allowing him to find out the address of his children whom he would later kill.
The lawyer herself threatened that she would take the terrified children & give custody to Edwards if she did not facilitate visitation with their abuser. This is ALSO coercive control @davtw2

It didn’t matter his history of assaulting his prior partners or children, nor did it matter the kids were terrified of him. Their own lawyer believed he had a RIGHT to his children & this superseded everything he did. Now those children are dead. She said their mother was a
“Hard-nosed bitch” who wanted to deny the father access. The police said the same thing- & documented it.
Our entire system conspired wt John Edwards to make him feel so entitled to his children such that he would shoot them both whilst they were cowering under a desk @Alymedywon

Where is the accountability? When will those who place their own value judgements over the rights of victims of abuse be held responsible for the injury& deaths they cause? Jack & Jennifer were so frightened they slept with a bat. That should have counted @bunnypope
Edwards history of violence should have meant something. Everyone was scared of him-ex partners, his 8 other kids, & also a teacher & a psychologist. Yet someone thought he should have access to his victims. Someone else thought he should have a gun.Someone thought Olga was lying
Someone thought Olga was LYING and now they are all dead....will anyone really be held accountable?
