"domestic " violence means it was kept at home and not quite as bad as endangering the public ; just the ones in the home.. BUT if that had been a stranger the whole town would be up in arms because they might be next .
The tolerance for this kind of violence is even greater than what would be normal for a pet. if he had beheaded the family dog, the "public" would be more horrified and reactions and the response would be much stronger.
