My name is Natalie Grace Marcano, and I want to share my story. It's not easy, but I feel it's important for people to know what I've been through. For the past two years, I've been in a relationship with Thomas Allen Carver . At first, everything seemed fine, but things quickly took a dark turn. The violence escalated, and now I fear for my life. One night, we were arguing in the car when Thomas became violent. He threw my phone out the window, hit me in the face, and pulled my hair. When we got back to his place, things only got worse. He grabbed my blouse and pushed me down. I was terrified.
