Battered Woman Posts Picture to Facebook to Call Out Boyfriend

?w=322&h=424

LIBERTY, Mo. — A woman posted a picture to Facebook, but it’s not one you typically see. She’s in a neck brace, lying in a hospital bed with cords criss-crossing her chest. Her eyes are dark. She’s not smiling. Instead, she’s on a mission to get justice.

According to the caption, Amber Taylor, 23, said her boyfriend is responsible for causing her injuries.

“I want everyone to know who he is bc he is fake and honestly NO woman ever deserves to be in my spot,” she wrote.

According to Liberty police, Austin McCauley, 19, was arrested on Dec. 11 for domestic abuse for an incident that occurred on Dec. 10 at the Value Place Motel in Liberty, Mo. On Wednesday, Dec. 12, McCauley was charged with second degree domestic assault. He pleaded not guilty.

I don't see how he could have possibly been trying for anything short of killing her.

Allegations being what they are, if true, Clownshoes McCauley needed a weapon?

Ms. Taylor, if what you say is the case, I hope if what you seek is a real man to help complete your life, then you find one. You won't in that particular bloodline.

*saw the pic of him, laughed...still laughing*
