My deepest condolences go out to Erica, her four children, her tribe, her loved ones, her friends, and all those affected by the devastating reality of domestic violence. No loss like this should ever be minimized or explained away. While grief, trauma, and mental health struggles are real and deserving of compassion, they can never be used to excuse or justify acts of violence. Accountability must remain at the forefront, and awareness is critical; because silence, rationalization, and misplaced sympathy only perpetuate harm. We must stand firmly with victims, honor their lives, and continue pushing for education, intervention, and protection so tragedies like this are not repeated.
Stronger Together. 💜
