      Strangulation is among the most lethal forms of domestic violence – and being strangled increases the risk of being killed in the future by 750%. Along with an alarming increase in reported strangulations in Western New York,

      The article shown in her video.

      Non-fatal strangulation was reported in 10% of abused controls, 45% of attempted homicides and 43% of homicides. Prior non-fatal strangulation was associated with greater than six-fold odds (OR 6.70, 95% CI 3.91–11.49) of becoming an attempted homicide, and over seven-fold odds (OR 7.48, 95% CI 4.53–12.35) of becoming a completed homicide.

      Very curious as to what you based your assumption on it being “fabricated” on though.

      Edit: Got nothing to say after the study is provided to you after baselessly claiming it was “fabricated” but hanging around to downvote my replies in child comments. Brave man.

        Even if that stat is correct, you’ve made the wrong conclusion.

        This stat is saying if your partner chokes you in an act of violence (non-consenually) then the risk goes up. The key point being that if someone is willing to choke you in violence, they’re likely to escalate further.

          Given the other person claimed it was “fabricated” and I’ve provided the same study that was cited in the video, that’s probably all I need to hear from you about this but anyway.

          I not only reference that in the initial comment but specifically state that in others in the comment chain.

      Given she’s a science communicator with a PhD in theoretical physics, my instinct wasn’t to immediately assume she “fabricated” this stat.
