Over the course of March in Sacramento, the length of the day is rapidly increasing. From the start to the end of the month, the length of the day increases by 1 hour, 15 minutes, implying an average daily increase of 2 minutes, 31 seconds, and weekly increase of 17 minutes, 35 seconds.
Strangulation is an ultimate form of power and control where the batterer can demonstrate control over the victimâs next breath: it may have devastating psychological effects or a potentially fatal outcome.
Death from strangulation has been known to happen up to 36 hours after the attack. How? The neck is largely made up of muscles. The muscles, when wrenched during the strangulation attack, tend to tear and bruise, leading to swelling. This internal swelling applies pressure to the veins and artery, cutting off blood flow.
