FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda The survey by the Police Executive Research Forum found that 56 percent of the 700 responding agencies reported that the poor economy is driving an increase in domestic violence, USA Today reported.
The figure is up from 40 percent of agencies in a similar survey in 2010.
In one example, police responded to 9,100 domestic violence incidents in Camden, New Jersey in 2011, up from 7,500 calls in 2010.
Camden Police Chief Scott Thomson said it was “impossible” to separate the economy from domestic violence in the city, where the unemployment rate is 19 percent.
The survey also said that police are responding to more reports of domestic violence incidents, regardless of whether charges are filed.
The president of the National Domestic Violence Hotline, Katie Ray-Jones, said that financial stress was a factor in “intensifying and escalating” reported abuse.
