Nothing can be proved without evidence. There are different kinds of evidence, some more convincing than others.
Circumstantial evidence - This is when you get people to tell the court that they saw you get abused, or they can say the heard you being abused. This can be used in court, but it is not very convincing to the judge or jury.
Hearsay evidence - This cannot be used in court, because it is not very reliable. An example of hearsay would be, "Paul told linda who told charlie who wrote a letter to Andrea saying that Phillip was being abused." This is not very credible.
Physical evidence is the most convincing, this would be like, taking a picture of a bruise.

Do not be afraid to ask for help or to help another person.
Evidence of abuse must be stored carefully to maintain the quality and integrity of the samples. Clothing must be stored in an airtight manner. Photographs as evidence should be printed on archival quality paper.

If a woman reports her physical abuse the police will have a female officer take photos of the marks on the victim's body as evidence. They will also take hospital reports of the victim being treated for physical abuse into a court of law. Mental abuse is in the control of most victims. The mental abuser often plays mind games and is miserable, but doesn't attack his victim physically. The victim does have the chance to leave their mental abuser and file for divorce.
