Except some stats out there show that as high as 90% of domestic violence claims are recanted.
Non-cooperation by recantation or failure to appear at trial is an epidemic in domestic violence cases. Persons qualified to give expert testimony at trial on domestic violence, including psychologists, counselors, police detectives,directors of battered women's shelters, and victim advocates, consistently testify that, in their experience, it is commonplace for domestic violence victims to recant or minimize initial reports of abuse. The head of the Family Violence Division of the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office estimates that ninety percent of domestic violence victims recant
And mainly because of including psychological trauma, external pressures from the batterer, and the fear of more of the same type of behavior.
In the end it does not matter he is gone and the staff seemed to think their was enough to dismiss him. Not sure what they were thinking in the beginning but it is what it is.

You're using the highest possible spectrum for that point. Recants have been shown to be as high as 90% but numerous other studies have found them to be lower than that figure.
I understand well enough how that works. The issue here is that not all cases of recants are due to being pressured. One thing we seem to be gleaning over is the fact that she was arrested and charged with falsifying a report to police. That doesn't normally happen in recant situations unless there's evidence that it might possiby be true. At this point in time we can't go with a guilty until procen mindset but rather have to wait until the case is finished and all the evidence is presented.
If a man wants to change, is changing, and then is unfairly robbed of that opportunity by a lie then he should not be left on his own. Taylor obviously convinced the staff he was all in or we would never have taken the risk. We have no right to make a moral judgment off a knee jerk media reaction but should rather see how the case plays out.
