That judge said it best. That poor woman didn't deserve to spend a single second in prison for protecting herself & children.
I'm happy she got released. The injustice is she was in prison in her own home and then actually being in prison ; it's constant suffering she should not of had .
*not have had
Amen
Halleliujah
💯
Absolutely. Sometimes there really does not seem to be a way out. He would have hunted her down and tortured and inevitably killed her; perhaps the children in front of her first.
This is a story we now know about a woman terrorized by her husband/spouse/common-law boyfriend, partner.
Imagine those stories we never hear about.
It's amazing that the guy goes missing for a year and no one cares. He must have been such an awful person
O yeah.
Good riddance, to bad rubbish.
Why care about the abusive pos everyone knew how abusive he was to her I wouldn't mention it ppl didn't care to help her so he disappeared and everyone is concerned
Im surprised in such a small town that they would spend time or money on him.
Missouri has a fairly well known documentary (‘80’s?) about a man maybe slightly worse that was killed in broad daylight in the small town downtown (one main road). They said the whole town knows who all were involved but refused to testify/charge anyone
😂😂
This is a woman who had an unborn baby & her other children to protect. He was never going to let her ago & would've subjected Dixie & her children to a lifetime of abuse & misery. It's self defence all the way
Maybe not a lifetime if she’d had Resources to move far away. Change her surname. Money would have helped her a lot. No one wants to say this but enough money, living in a really good home, etc she could have left. These women never have the resources needed.
Absolutely. It’s kill or be killed.
And where was all the “Pro Lifers” in this case???
Cea Larkin, that has nothing to do with anything here.
lisa russell, that's because that's the first thing abusers do. Take away your resources and support system.
I mean. He asked for it 😬 that one lady was right. A person can only take so much until they snap.
Funny how the community were concerned about his disappearance but claimed to hate him
Parent responsible is to protect their children at any cost.
The only time she can defend herself is while he is sleeping.
It justified.
Excellent point! When do you defend your children and yourself against an abuser this vile, if not at a time when he's not able to retaliate in the worst possible way? I don't care if he was asleep or not. It doesn't matter.
That’s exactly what I say when the show is on the other foot. Guys shoot first!! That’s my M.O. bet one of these tramps wouldn’t get the drop on me. They be in a better place fukkin with me.
Absolutely
She should have never ever been in prison. Shame in so called justice. Hope her life is happy now
She deserved a medal, not prison!
Very, very, very sad she was still being abused by all the men connected in this story. Shame on all of them.
Yes. Scott was always the victim here.
Shame on the sheep jurors handing it over to the injustice system feeding prison slavery! What a joke the sheriff says I hope she got "mental health treatment" in torture slavery prison industry designed to break people and disguise it as "rehabilitation". She could be OK but not anymore after 14 years of prison abuse and taking her out of the life of her orphaned children growing up! Nothing can give those years back and undo the prison trauma!
She did the right thing and there’s a limit for everything.
It's more than about time that the 'domestic' in domestic abuse was dropped. Abuse is abuse, end of. How she didn't kill him sooner I don't know. That poor woman was punished for something she should have been given a medal for.
I hope she is coping well with life now, bless her 🙏 🧡
Self defense
@@lesliepaternoster1896 absolutely 👍
I think that domestic violence has a very different quality to it. If get in a bar fight, and some random stranger came up and slugged me, I’d be shocked. I might fall, break my cheekbone, maybe get a black eye. I might have a touch of distress, but I’d get over it pretty quickly from a psychological perspective. If my partner did the same, it’s effect could be devastating. It’s tied to trust, feeling safe in your home. That person is supposed to take care of you has just hurt you. Assault and domestic violence can’t be treated the same way.
Yes exactly it's abuse, violence, domestic needs to be dropped.
No woman deserves beating. You’re right. She should have done it long ago.
She did herself, her children, the community a favour by killing him.
It was him, or herself and children. Yes it's wrong. But in her shoes, mentally, physically, emotionally, what choice did she have.
Thank God she's free now...
🤣🤣🤣
That’s same thing I say when the shoe is on the other foot🗣
Amen, that scumbag got what was coming to him, and in a world where most domestic abusers do not, it's a joy to see!
*Favor? Is what I think you meant.. And when the shoes on the other foot and the woman gets killed I notice it’s a different story.
@@glamdolly30 you chics sound just like the low life 💩 you are. That’s why I’d take a piece of 💩 out to the trash before she could me. He just was slow. Wouldn’t happen to a real one.
I'm glad she was released. She already did years of prison time with Scott.
Also: Goodbye Earl!
👏👏👏
My first thought!
🎯🎯🎯
Same thought!! 😉
It's a miracle she didn't wind up dead at his hands - that's usually the way it goes. Poor woman! He got what was coming to him.
Violence and murder are unacceptable in a civil society.
@@January. Yeah, well, but sometimes, you need a little vigilante justice. Period.
@@litgal783 Prison is where vigilante murderers belong.
@@January.
Nobody was murdered. The trash was taken out. Those are 2 completely different things. Go support the abuse and murder of women somewhere else
@@Marco_El_Afro-Latino It's called the LAW in this country. The prevalence of ignoramuses in the world is horrific. antawamonosugoibakada
That poor, poor woman. My God, what else could she do? I'm glad she is out of prison. God bless her and her children.
Amen my lady
Hellelujah
I was going to say how sad I was and how mad I was that this lady was put in prison for 50 years only to read your beautiful comments that she had been let out I have spent my forties fifties and sixties alone because of abuse and the fear of what will happen to me if I was to have someone I spent all my gorgeous days I gorgeous days the last of them to grow old all grow old all alone when I should have had someone in my life to be abused just destroys you And your mind and the fear that you have if you aren't to be with someone what they might do to you. I am 64 years old and how I have been single so very long when I should have had a partner a long time ago to spend my older years with I wake up alone I go to bed alone not that I'm unhappy it's just the fear of what would have happened had I have taken another Man in my life I still fear still fear and I guess I always will have that fear in the back of my time God-bless all of you women that are abused I've been there done that. I prayed for This lady who has spent most of her life in fear of a man she loved I know the feeling the worst part for me I never got Got closure because He passed away at a young age unage. After I left cancer got him karma is what I Believe but the closure I should have received. I do hope when my day is done and I'm on my way to heaven and we pass each other that we can make peace.
She could’ve left and stayed gone instead of killing him
@@sellison3728 I agree. I mean batteed women shelters exist for reasons of domestic abuse. That was an option.
Unfortunately you do go back because it’s familiar and you’re so broken. Her abuse was literally all she’d ever known.
So true. Her stepdad abused her so she was used to nothing but abuse. It was what she thought was normal. I know firsthand. Unfortunately the cycle of abuse continues on and on. RIP Dixie🙏🏼
The abused sure get it! I do!
She went back for the children
Bullshit! U chics lie all the time about abuse. He should've ended that azz first!! Itd been me shed been in a box not me,
No, people go back because they know if they don't they will be hunted down and murdered. It happens all the time. Leaving is the most dangerous time for a victim. It's not familiar it's self preservation. It's not wanting to die and leave their children at the mercy of a violent psychopath.
Dogs like Scott do not change they get more violent. Her Bing sent to prison was shameful. I'm glad she was released. Tamron you are a great story teller. ❤
It’s not shameful that she went to prison. This wasn’t self defense. She’s an idiot! All the times he beat her she didn’t have enough brains to shoot him then or to leave and never come back. What is shameful is the fact that she put her 3 children in danger by staying with this pig!
That's an insult
to dogs
@@bentheg9793 you are right. I love dogs I have had dog all my life.
Yes Dogs are God's Angels. What Scott was a disgusting human being that should have gone to prison from day one. Can only blame the Police and the Courts
Shame on that prosecutor pursuing this!
I watched my mom go through this on almost daily basis. I still loved my dad but I knew he was mentally sick from alcoholism. Back then no one intervened. Pure terror at times. In this case as I was watching and wished no one would have looked for that man. To me he was a demon. Flash backs are enough punishment for her and her children which none of them deserve at all. They never go away.. I know this video is old and I truly pray her life and mind are in a peaceful place. 🙏🏻😢
I know those flashbacks. I happened to meet a man in church, he was big and had a stern, disapproving face. I sat in the church pew and through the whole service felt such fear and kept thinking "he hates me, hes going to kill me, he wants to kill me" . He was just a grumpy man, but he triggered me.
@Jules I had an abusive stepfather as a child. Never me or my sister just my mom. Fortunately for us we lived with our dad most of the time. But the permanent scars of some of those incidences. I can't imagine living in that situation full time. I hope you find peace.
I'll never understand why people love their shitty abusive parents. I hate mine. I have a lot of words to describe how I feel and love wouldn't even make the list.
They have to die for it to end. I had a partner like that, and they tell you it will only end in death repeatedly. They just think it's your death not theirs. Mine was murdered and knowing he died gave me the freedom to live again. Knowing he was never one of the people walking around out there enabled me to start healing.
So you arranged it?
@@the_auditor1017 no but the guy who did it should've got 2 weeks in the Bahamas instead of 7 years in jail lol. If I could shake that man's hand I would. I'd give him the biggest hug ever.
It's interesting that no one has anything positive to say about this guy. There's typically someone contradicting or "defending" the abuser in some way. Tells me all I need to know...absolutely self defense. Not the way she covered it all up, but in the act itself. She never should have been sent to prison. Hope she gets the help she needs.
The fact that it was one year before any one even cared to look for him, speaks a lot a who Scott was. She should have reported his death as self defense the very night it happened
She put a rabid dog out of his misery. Hopefully she is living a better life now.
I, personally, wouldn't have been able to find her guilty of 1st or 2nd degree murder (if I were on that jury).
Same
It’s like stealing food for hungry children - it’s still stealing. I tend to think the just thing was done here. She did kill him but having the governor pardon sentence was the correct thing to do. This is case for why governor/president should right to pardon.
@@Jen39x Jury Nullification is a thing and should have been done here.
you should never be ona jury
@@cheery-hex Your menacing kind is better in prison
Scott deserved it. No one truly knows but the only time a battered woman can fight back is when her batterer is asleep or passed out drunk. Stop the monsters before they take a victim.
This broke my heart. I wish Dixie and her children peace and happiness ❤️.
Thanks to those raising important issues and awareness with these complex cases.
My heart goes out to her ❤️
She went back because that was her ‘norm’. She needed all sorts of support not for a few days or weeks or months but years. Sad story seen again and again. She finally broke free.
This host rocks. She should be doing more. Awesome job Tamron. More success in your future !!
If you want to see more of her, she has her own show called The Tamron Hall Show
So very true!
She’s been successful for many years.
She is very successful, and rightly so! She won the 2022 award for best show host in her category (informative daytime talkshow) for "Tamron Hall". She is amazing!
Scott had it coming.
Trust me when I say this!!…he keep buttering her up and telling her to try and get those charges dropped when he would beat her…she didn’t do that in her own free will. I’ve been through that and they beat you and get you in trouble with them and then they butter you up and tell you to please try and get him out of trouble with the law. He’s assertive, manipulative, persistent, and a plain psycho!
That woman didn't deserve a day in jail.Her abuse was a prolonged incident within much of her marriage and by one person who should have treated her otherwise due to her past.Scott's death was the balance required for Dixie's life and that of their kids to flourish.
Whoever got her out deserves a place in heaven.
Jjjhğç
Well that's the only time you can fight a monster when it's sleeping then.
I really hope this judge will get what he deserves, shame on all this so called MEN!!!
how is it the judges fault? he wanted to give her a light sentence but there were mandatory sentencing guidelines that tied his hands. She was found guilty by a jury and not by him.
@@AmandaM76 Well, the judge could have dismissed it in the first place if he wasn't cowardly and not serving his masters, not have signed up for the injustice system feeding the the prison slavery industry in the first place...
@@madi4481"Slavery industry"? So, you would let all criminals wander the streets?
@@EBB-kab I would put your evil self-absorbed thing in the Gulag of USA for the sake of humanity and myself getting sickened by u
So the town knew he was abusive and did nothing but when he went missing they started investigating the wife.. smh
In the small town where I grew up, the men would have taken care of him! And it would have never been spoken of, they would have probably tied him up and thrown him in the river. She didn’t deserve prison..
This was extreme!!!! This judge is heartless!!! Glad she was able to go home
I wish everyone who was fully aware of the brutal relationship she was trapped in, offer to help & seriously protect her from him ! Everybody was watching and waiting him to kill her at some point, she had to kill him first to protect herself and her unborn baby.
She was often offered help and her friends and family did try to protect her but at the end of the day he would always talk her into coming back. She left a few times. He always talked a good game. Used the kids and him getting therapy to his advantage. Police, town, everyone knew it would eventually end with a death. Everyone thought it was going to be her though. You can only help people so much and can't force them to leave.
@@AmandaM76 I totally get it, and sadly she absolutely loved him. I meant professional help... like a therapist & support groups to help her break the cycle of ab*se in her life since childhood. This poor woman has been through a lot :(
As a survivor of domestic violence I find it utterly appalling that she spent even one day in prison...
Tell that to the corrupt injustice system supplying prison slavery and the sheep jurors. What a joke the sheriff says I hope she got "mental health treatment" in torture slavery prison industry designed to break people and disguise it as "rehabilitation". She could be OK but not anymore after 14 years of prison abuse and taking her out of the life of her orphaned children growing up! Nothing can give those years back and undo the prison trauma!
this prosecutor is probably an abuser himself
I agree, but they still have to hold them accountable. Should be community service. Every crime has to have a punishment, but the severity should be appropriate. Teens and kids thar kill shouldn't get light sentences just bc they are kids. Their punishment should fit their crime too. Almost every female on my mothers side has been with an abusive man, and they all have drug issues, alcohol issues and so much more. All their daughters have suffered bc of it, like me. Domestic violence destroys whole families.
@@PurplePanda0315 no miss untouchable by the corrupt prison industry, that's not how it works
Imagine that a man is held hostage, beaten regularly. His captor is so much stronger than he is; he is powerless to stop the beatings. His captor falls asleep. He grabs the gun and shoots the guy, then runs. He would be hailed as a hero.
Thanks for the upload. Thanks Tamaron
I applaud you young lady 👏🏻👏🏻 well done 👏🏻 👏🏻
This is again where men get away with saying it happened during an argument she picked up knife/ gun first?
Women have to retaliate, by planning, I’m certain this victim suffered from severe PTSD.
Stop convicting & locking up victims.
This lady should of never went to prison. It’s so easy to think he was sleeping so how was he a threat but when you’ve been abused like she did, things we take as a threat is different. She did what she had to do
He would be a threat as soon as he woke up!
She killed somebody
Dixie chose to have a trial for all the women out there who are being abused
I only watch the Tamron Hall updates on this channel. By far some of the best reporting on YT
Prison was absolutely a safe haven for her i'm sure. All her life she was abused by men and I think EVERYONE is capable of saying
" enough " and doing WHATEVER needed to end the abuse. I'm thankful she got out early!
huh??? Prison is where she DOES GET the most ABUSED by a bunch of men and women in power! What a joke the sheriff says I hope she got "mental health treatment" in torture slavery prison industry designed to break people and disguise it as "rehabilitation". She could be OK but not anymore after 14 years of prison abuse and taking her out of the life of her orphaned children growing up! Nothing can give those years back and undo the prison trauma!
Great storytelling. I had not heard about this before now. 🌹
The prosecutor is a shame and I hope he will get KARMA!!
A God GIVEN RIGHT to protect yourself!
I have said for years that battered women like this should be put into the witness protection program so the abuser can't ever find them.
The sheriff's department should be deeply ashamed of themselves. They stood by and let this woman be beaten and abused for years and then arrested her for doing what they should have done years earlier.
The prosecuter should also be ashamed. "Legal" and justice are not always the same thing. This was NOT justifiable homicide, it plain, pure self defense. And had the state done its job and put this monster of a husband in prison for a long time she wouldn't have had to shoot him.
What a travesty!
Absolutely agree 100%!
Her lawyers didn't do her justice. She never should have been locked up. Unless you've been in her shoes. You can never understand. I've been there. Fortunately I finally got out. It took 10 years.
The stylist who chooses Tamron's outfit is on point👌.
?
It wasn't an immediate threat. But if she didn't get him while he was asleep she might not get him at all. And if he's a monster, then she might have felt it was necessary for her life.
We need to be teaching our young women, while they’re younger=for me, I learned much in Home Ec, but so much isn’t taught anymore. Terribly abusive after, in all ways and frying pan to fire. That month in Home Ec was good, but didn’t learn enough to teach me to stay away. Girls can be taught what ‘control’ looks like, and more. I took so many beatings, with broken ribs, concussion and more, and he beat me so bad as I was curled in a fetal position protecting my unborn son. It all ended for me when he broke 9 of that sons ribs and more...it’s been since 1970 and though the Lord has healed many wounds, it’s hard to forget so much. I depend on the scripture telling me ‘whatsoever things are pure, gentle, peaceable and easy to be entreated-to think on those things.
Of course LE tries to defend the fact that the abuser was continuously arrested....however, he was ALWAYS released! That's exactly the problem with the system. Perhaps if the wife beater had gone to prison, he'd still be alive. Why was he never put on trial and sent away for all of the horrible abuse he'd done?
She had no choice. This was a woman that was beat over and over. This case was either him or her. She should go free. Thst guy deserve all that and more.
It’s a shame, she should have taken the plea deal of two years!! 50 years!!!
This is sad. This poor woman and her children.
By going to the police when he disappeared, was that to help her get out of the constantly abuse....!!!?
Couldn't people just mind their own buisness and be glad that this MONSTER disappeared. Some people really need to get themselves in such companies as this monster Scott, to understand!!
Reminds me of the case in Nova Scotia back in the early 80s. There is a movie available on YT called Life With Billy about it.
I remember that one. Probably the first realistic movie I had ever watched about DV
@@aileenj8180 Tragically Jane Stafford, Billy's wife took her own life years later. She never got over the abuse from that monster. The movie was indeed very realistic.
Thanks for the recommendation ✌️🌈
@@rayross997 I didn't know that. A tragic end to a tragic life 💔😪
IMO, he brought it upon himself.
That prosecuter saying he had to keep emotion out of it, basing the case on facts, what a bunch of bs. There's years of evidence of self defense.
I don't understand why there wasn't a protection order put in place for this woman. The authorities should have done more to protect her. It's their fault not hers.
there were various protection orders and no contact orders. like the video says he would always find a way to get her to write those letters to the judges and get his wrist slapped up to this point. times were different back then. no battered women's shelters or places that would hide you. she would leave and he would always find her and convince her to come back. she even left the state for a time. police would often try to convince her to leave him for good. but they can only arrest him. it was a sad situation all around for everyone.
@@AmandaM76 why didn't they arrest him then?
@@octopuszoo2027 they did arrest him. Multiple times
@@AmandaM76 exactly! How many times do you get arrested and not get a prison sentence for a long time!
@@octopuszoo2027 protection orders are garbage
I don’t agree with that jury at all ! What people don’t understand is abuse weighs heavy, not only on the physical body but the mental and emotional as well. Being a battered woman is real and she was not supposed to be sentenced especially to 50 damn years. Thankfully she was out in 15 but that was too injust in my opinion. I hope she’s living a happy and healthy life today
These men that prosecute her never experienced abused in their lives. I hope their children will never experience abuse, I did and I almost killed my Ex too. Thanks God I got away before it was too late. God is good. 🙏🙏🙏
I hope her time in prison was at least beneficial to her. Who knows, if she had been acquitted, she could've ended in another abusive relationship as often victims of DV do. Hopefully she used that time to process what happened and realise her self-worth.
you don't need to get thrown in jail after decades of abuse in order to learn, what?, more of a lesson? dumb. blame the victim.
@@ellesbells902 I'm not in any way blaming the victim. As I said I HOPE it was beneficial in some way. Silver lightning. What I meant was pretty obvious.
Prison is the biggest ABUSE INDUSTRY! What a joke the sheriff says I hope she got "mental health treatment" in torture slavery prison industry designed to break people and disguise it as "rehabilitation". She could be OK but not anymore after 14 years of prison abuse and taking her out of the life of her orphaned children growing up! Nothing can give those years back and undo the prison trauma!
Bless her heart. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Pretty unjust. I mean, he probably may have killed her eventually. Manslaughter would have been more appropriate.
I remember seeing this on SNAPPED many many years ago, she should have never been convicted.
Hello from Houston, Texas. Tamron Hall love you.
Clear case of Justisfiable Homicide...
Love your channel. Keep up the good work.
These men beat you threaten your kids, your sisters, brothers, parents and other family members if you leave, but you try to early on, and they find you after following you from work at your aunt's house and scare them so bad you have to go back to this guy to save your family, it's happened to me and other women I know, women get more punishment than men, if a man had this no time
I hope and pray that she's getting the help she needs. God bless and protect her and her children
Crazy my ex suddenly left in 2020 but nobody questions what I'm doing with the crap he left behind because they're all happy I finally moved on!! Hope he keeps his ass in TN until long after our children are adults.......
You stay because the final line has not been crossed . You stay because you believe there’s nothing better out there for you. You stay because you believe when they say your worthless 😢😢
Exactly. Being abused sexually as a child played a huge part up to that point where she did what she did. When you’re abused/brainwashed for the majority of your life you just think differently.
The most frustrating aspect of this case is that this woman walked amongst the town people and all the officials and no one did a thing to help her. It wasn’t just her husband who entrapped her in this situation, it was the sheriff, the hospital staff, her doctor, the neighbor, the pastor…any and everyone who encircled Dixie’s life had their finger on that trigger. To be an observer to the crime being committed on this woman, is an accessory to the crime that was perpetrated on this woman for so many years. Not to mention, the abuse and trauma inflicted upon a child! She shouldn’t have served one day in prison. The justice system as well as the community in general, failed this poor woman.
You can’t make people leave someone they themselves won’t. They may often team up with the abuser if you try. Best thing sometimes is to help them once they actually leave.
As someone who has been sexually abused by two family members and ended up in two domestic violence relationships this hits home cause they are right from being abused as a child and going into domestic violence relationships it was all I knew and I didn't know how to leave I was vulnerable and I am also autistic I had two children with my first ex and five with the other it took a long time to leave the first one but I ended up in the next cause I thought I wanted to be loved by someone it was years before I left the second ex it's took years to get to were I am today I still have nightmares and flashbacks but I had to learn to love me first unfortunately if you don't have family to support you and give you advice then that makes it harder for someone who is suffering from domestic violence it doesn't matter how many times you try and take that person away or moan at them it's up to the person to get the strength to go
Hello from Jersey..love this channel ☺
Boy, his mother really hated him. I bet she told him he was a mistake and she wished he was never born. Unwanted men get like this-it’s an ego thing. Scott was an abortion that lived. His life was in women’s hands. What took her so long?
I love how they tell you our advise you to call a hotline.. like as if you're every move is not watched and you're just free of consequences
There is no justice system in this country.
I really wish that this woman finally has peace in her life
Love this series with Tamron. She's a wonderful host. Thanks uploader.
Tamron is like a warm hug in these icy waters. Such a beautifully empathetic person to deliver stories like this. May anyone suffering from ANY abuse get free and have massive support.
This is why minimum sentences are wrong. Individual cases need flexibility by judges.
So many police tried to help me, but in those days, there were no safe houses for women. That came shortly after all my ordeals.
The defense didn't challenge the charge, because they wanted a case to make money off
They didn't challenge it because they knew a jury of her peers...the ppl who watched her be beat for years would let her go.
I recently learned about The Stockholm syndrome in depth, it does cover DV/SA as well after all it's basically the same makeup they have the same basic rules, I mean it's about control, right.
My little sister had to endure a similar bastard like him until they divorced but he wouldn't let it go, it was on/ off again and then his girlfriend's started bullying her my sister about him yeah what a catch 🤮 she wasn't even interested in him she got something worse than him to be interested in her and they were horrible to the kids it didn't bother her as long as they was with her nothing else mattered I took care of the kids because the one who birthed me forced me to take care of them so she could run free.
NOT GUILTY.
I rarely slept. I knew he would kill me.
She was brave to take out this horrible monster...good for her🙌
Her killing Scott is a blessing in disguise. The real tragedy would have been the children growing up seeing their father beat their mother daily and knowing he tried to kill the youngest. That is, if he didn't kill her first. She was left no choice but to save her life, her children's lives and their futures in the only free moment she had. I pray her life gets better and she perseveres. I pray the children's lives are going well, also!
The same women who lack the self confidence to leave abusers always reject me with ease.
Doesn't matter she acted with forethought, if, indeed, she did: SHE HAD HAD ENOUGH. Even prosecutors must say the truth and not color facts in the name of the imperative of the State winning a case.
A tragedy. Thank you for showing us video to us.
The system that should have protected her couldn't wait to put her in prison for more abuse.
I don’t get it. If he didn’t want another baby, why didnt he use protection? Sick af.
@Unique, were you expecting this guy to engage in rational and organized family planning?
