Prosecutor's Perspective: Red Flags of Family Violence

Prosecutor's Perspective: Red Flags of Family Violence

In this video, the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office Family Violence Division shares an important message about recognizing the red flags of abuse, breaking the cycle of domestic violence, and finding resources to stay safe. Domestic violence is never acceptable. From controlling behavior and constant accusations to physical abuse, these warning signs should never be ignored. A healthy relationship is built on love, trust, and safety — not fear.

This video covers:

✅ Common warning signs of abuse and controlling behavior

✅ Why listening to your instincts can save lives

✅ How the DA’s Office supports survivors with safety planning and legal options

✅ Resources for shelters, protective orders, and legal services

✅ The importance of taking the first step to protect yourself and your family

If you are in immediate danger, call 911.

Together, we can demand safety and respect in all relationships.
