Unfortunately, most likely never, Steve. The way the law stands, if a 3rd party reports domestic violence, it's almost always the male party who goes to jail. Never mind if he's the one bleeding, bruised, or whatever. One of my old neighbors, Mitch, a tall lanky guy with not a lot of smarts, was continuously abused by his wife, a short 300 pounder. She whacked him on the side of the head, hard enough to break his left eardrum, and he was the one jailed and prosecuted.
