What Can We Learn?

What a harrowing experience for this survivor! I could not imagine being in her position. A stalker was threatening her life so she did everything she could to get away from him. She moved from her home and changed her life. She either purchased a gun because of this stalker or she trained with her owned gun in case of a threat. Unfortunately, a life ended because of this final altercation. However, she did what she needed to save her life.
