ONE OF THE VICTIMS IN THE LAKE CITY TRIPLE HOMICIDE THIS WEEK WAS PREGNANT.
THIS HAS BEEN CONFIRMED AFTER THE RELEASE OF AN AUTOPSY FRIDAY FOR NICOLE CERVANTEZ.

THURSDAY MORNING, ALLAN STRATTAN, 25, TURNED HIMSELF IN AFTER CONFESSING TO THE MURDERS.

STRATTAN'S CRIMINAL RECORD RANGES FROM CHARGES OF RECKLESS DRIVING TO DOMESTIC BATTERY.

RELATIONSHIPS INVOLVING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE ARE SOMETHING THAT MANY WOMEN SEE NO WAY OUT OF, ACCORDING TO THERESA HARRISON, PEACEFUL PATHS DIRECTOR.

HARRISON ENCOURAGES ANY VICTIM OF SUCH ABUSE TO MAKE USE OF STATE AND LOCAL DOMESTIC VIOLENCE HOTLINES. FEBRUARY MARKS THE BEGINNING OF DATING VIOLENCE AWARENESS MONTH AND WHAT MANY CAN ONLY HOPE IS A TURN-AROUND IN THE CURRENT ABUSE TRENDS.

FLORIDA'S DOMESTIC ABUSE HOTLINE IS: 1 800 500 1119
