It has been very upsetting to me to see this woman walk away with shooting a man in the back leaving with her children, and yet when Ms. Oprah asked her about the weapon and the abuse this woman had to stop and think about what the answer is. Sorry guys can't buy her story I am a victim of abuse beat to many times to remember shot twice, stabbed, stayed for four years, but then I said one day after getting him put back in prison, now is my time to leave, because I knew once he got out I'd be a goner for sure. Fear is a very funny thing it does make you do things you didn't think you would , I didn't hear the fear in mary winkler, I didn't see the fear in her eyes, and that is just something that stays with you more than two years, It has been over twenty years since I went through my abuse but the thought of my ex to this day still runs chills down my spine. Mary Winkler may have been a victim of abuse, but I don't believe it was like she has described it, I haven't walked in her shoes but I have walked in the shoes of abuse. As for her getting her children back now I would have to side with Liza from Court T.V.
