My boyfriend for 1+ yr had a record of hitting me when he doesn't get what he wants. He usually throws me around, presses me against the wall while yelling and threatening me. He broke my head once I had to go to hospital for it. I was pregnant for 8 weeks and he beat me up 3 times before he forced me to have abortion otherwise he'd leave me. Usually during the fights, he would grab my arms so i can't fight back, pulls my hair to control my head, and all I could do was to scratch him by my nails or bite him when he's hurting me too hard. I want to press charges against him now, (he beat me up again last night) should I call the police? Should I take pictures of my bruises? Will I get in trouble since he has bite marks and scratches on him too? I'm really scared he'll come bk and hit me aga
