Connecticut Jail Term for Domestic Violence Offender, John Sawicki - 1937


FULL TEXT: A four months’ term in the county jail was imposed by Judge Belcher in the police court this morning in the case of John Saicki, a laborer, of 167 North Bank street, who pleaded guilty to a charge of administering a severe beating to his wife, Lottie. The attack occurred on the night of March 25 and, according to the police, Mr. Sawicki bore the marks of the beating for sometime afterwards.

Sawicki fled the city immediately after the attack and did not return until yesterday. Patrolman Frank Lonihan saw him in State street and, knowing there was a warrant pending against him, took him into custody, Sawicki has a long police record.

• You have been told that before the rise of feminism in the 1960s that domestic violence against women was tolerated by society as acceptable behavior and was not taken seriously by police and the courts.

You have been lied to. The people who told you these lies were paid to tell them you. In most cases you paid your own money (taxes and tuition fees) to be lied to.

Here is one of countless pieces of evidence that demonstrate the truth.

• To see more eloquent, vivid evidence proving the lie and giving you the truth, see:


19th Century Intolerance Towards Domestic Violence

Treatment of Domestic Violence Against Women Before 1960this post collects cases classified by the form of punishment or sentencing (whether judicial or through community action)

No, the claim that laws created by males were for the benefit of males is false. Yes, the "Rule of Thumb" myth has been proven to be a marxist-feminist hoax, taking an ancient English common historical notation published in the 18th century and extrapolating it into unsupported claims that 18th and 20th century United States communities, courts and legislatures (laws on the books) were in agreement with the18th century historical notation (Blackstone).

“[O]nly since the 1970s has the criminal justice system begun to treat domestic violence as a serious crime, not as a private family matter.”

From the entry: “Domestic Violence” on encyclopedia.com

This claim has been proven to be false.
