"Domestic violence is one of the most under-reported crimes, and this
bill would bring us back to a time in the 70s whens we had no victim
protections in place under the law," said Amanda Grady Sexton, a
spokesperson for the New Hampshire Coalition Against Domestic Violence.
"The increase in lethality risk for victims and their children would be
through the roof. We should be doing everything in our power to reduce
those homicides, not increase them."
