I thought same. I was beat up by an ex and he chased me thru the townhouse pounding on me when he could catch me I got away and ran out of the house to the pay phone and he followed behind and hung up the phone. Darn-it the security guard would not call the police. my ex told him I had been drinking. the guard was looking at a Playboy mag. I did convince him to call me every our for the next 3 hours and check on me. I never reported it to the police, I told others but it would be a waste of time and more hassle. I remember finite details like it was yesterday I don't buy her story..there is a bigger agenda going on.  I wasn't willing to go through it. that was my choice. I tried to avoid those situations after that even though there was one more incident.
