South Carolina ranks 11th nationally for the number of women killed by men. While that statistic has improved in recent years, domestic violence remains a troublesome issue here. During this Domestic Violence Awareness Month, CCSO Victim Advocates April Ford and Daniela Diaz discuss how they work to assist domestic violence victims and link them with other resources in this episode of The Beat, a conversation about the Charleston County Sheriff's Office and our beautiful South Carolina community.
