Approximately 1.3 million women and 835,000 men are physically assaulted by an intimate partner annually in the United States
In recent years, an intimate partner killed approximately 33% of female murder victims and 4% of male murder victims.
Access to firearms yields a more than five-fold increase in risk of intimate partner homicide when considering other factors of abuse, according to a recent study, suggesting that abusers who possess guns tend to inflict the most severe abuse on their partners.
Of females killed with a firearm, almost two-thirds were killed by their intimate partners.
50% of offenders in state prison for spousal abuse had killed their victims.
