Maryland

The relationship between perpetrator and victim in domestic violence in 2006:

43% - females assaulted by male cohabitants
32% - wife of the aggressor
12% - males assaulted by female cohabitants
11% - husband of aggressor
2% - same sex relationship

Notice a pattern here? Let's add 43, 32, 12, 11, and 2. It equals 100%.

100% either lived with, were in a relationship with, or were married to their aggressor.
