Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Talk to her first and find out. It would feel best to handle this yourself but in the end he will walk and you will be in the hooscow. Not worth it.

Be true to your Family and Friends! A handshake, and your word is all it takes!!
Tough choice .......if she allows you too, ultimately you have to do whats best for her BABY and for Her. In the event God for bid, anything happens to her unborn child or her as a result of this abuse it will probably be too late for a solution cause the damage is done.
Chances are if he is the father and shes been with him for any amount of time, you are at a loss cause she , although beaten and abused, loves this POS and no one knows him like she does, he a good person, blah blah blah or something like that.

Good luck and keep us posted.
Personally, I think everybody deserves one warning. Maybe he was raised in an environment where he never learned respect for women, or how there are certain lines that shouldn't be crossed. Maybe he was beat as a kid, who knows? I would let him know in no uncertain terms, that this is the absolute last time that he will lay a hand on her. Let him know that his "free pass" is used up, and the next time will mean he's crippled or worse, without any chance of mercy or forgiveness - no matter what the consequences for you. Blood trumps legality in my mind every time. Be smart about it, but be decisive. Would you be able to accept it if he loses his temper and kills her or the child? Even if he goes to jail, will that be enough? Ultimately, wouldn't you rather run the risk of jail time or even your sister's anger, if you knew for certain that you were acting out of love in her best interests? Just my two cents worth...
