Pennsylvania Jail Term for Chronic Domestic Violence Offender - 1953


FULL TEXT: Millard Walls, Sharpsburg man freed from jail Thursday after a 21-day stay for wife beating, today finds himself back in jail for a six to 12-months’ term on the same charge.

All because Walls, upon being released by Judge Ralph T. Bell and warned to remain away from his spouse, disregarded the order and raised a rumpus.

He was arrested by Spartansburg police, and the matter called to Judge Bell’s attention. The penalty followed

Walls was jailed last April 24, upon complaint of his wife, Rosemarie, 23, of 1012 Penn St., Sharpsburg, that he had beaten her. judge Bell, thinking the 21 days in jail might have taught Walls respect for the law, had freed him on probation.

• 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.
