I agree with you. If he is abusive and dangerous she should get out. Period. If she decides to stay, I am assuming it is because he is not dangerous and abusive, but merely trying to intimidate and control. Then, how can anyone possibly stay in a relationship and be intimidated and controlled forever? Either do something about it or leave. If it is too dangerous to do something about it, then she should not even consider staying.
At the time I wrote my comments, I was under the impression that she was still thinking about staying. To me that meant he was not dangerous (even with that EMPTY gun stunt). Therefore she needed to confront him. I have been making my comments from the perspective of trying to salvage the marriage. If it is past that point, then we are all wasting our time, except for words of comfort. She only needs to talk to a lawyer.
I also agree with you that if Chrissy is moving out and he is that dangerous, calling the cops to protect her while moving is a good idea.
