thankfully this is a survivor today, that terrible beating that almost took her life. mary margaret, thank you so much for being with us. >> thank you for having me. >> we appreciate you sharing your story. people probably don't realize how horrible this can turn out to be for with women. male and female victims. tell us a little bit about what you experienced. >> my case unusual in the sense i was married to my ex-husband for 13 years during which period he was never physically abusive. he was very controlling and very high-powered person here in washington and in corporate america. but once i served him his divorce papers two days later he nearly killed me and the shocking part it escalated to

feel so passionate about speaking out because the warning signs are there when you have a person who has a controlling, jealous nature and shows these type of signs. >> you saw warning signs but the violence started long after the emotional abuse, is that right? >> yes. and i think that -- i've met other women who have found themselves in relationships that are abusive and a lot of people think this is something that happens toea have resources and i'm here to tell you that is not the case. a lot of women feel they can handle it, can manage it and it doesn't make a lot of sense to them. once you introduce children into the picture, children can never figure out the road map of how to avoid the abusive person's anger and even if that night

of the volence didn't happen, it was still a nightmare to try to navigate. >> your husband was a well-known, high-powered washington lawyer, former deputy white house counsel under george w. bush, but did anybody suspect he could have this type of anger that would come out in the way that it did? >> it's interesting. my daughter calls it after the bad thing happened people did come to me and say that people who had worked with him in government who said that they had never been so fearful of someone and when there was a conflict or disagreement at work and that he had an anger that really stood apart in a very kind of frightening way from others. >> tell us about your journey back, you're getting out, your

wholeness. >> so the -- unlike most women who suffer from domestic violence. it turns out the attack was so horrific that he was arrested, charged with and and vikted of my attempted murder and is serving in connecticut. most women, it's like i threaded the eye of the needle. it was so bad that never had to see him again except i did in ur >> i was left for dead, unconscious in a pool of blood after about a 30-minute attack. and i had tried to set off the house alarm but when i did that, he attacked me again. i lost consciousness. when i came to, there was no sound to the alarm and i thought they've probably called, the alarm company probably called and he gave them the code word to say, no, everything is fine. so i thought to myself i'm about

he used a long maglite flashlight to beat me. >> your children -- >> what i did, i thought to myself i have to get the kids out of the house before i die. i had left the keys in the car after i servinged him the papers thinking he might be ra to happen. i got my children and quietly ran to the car, and i drove until i got away from the house and i pulled into -- i started to lose consciousness and pulled into a neighbor's house that i didn't know them. >> what do you want to say to other women who may be experiencing this or headed towards this? >> a lot of people think those

organizations, ywca groups that will help you come up with a plan and to watch out for your children. you can't make sense of behavior and it's alarming, then maya angelou says when someone shows you who they are, believe them. >> you thank you. so glad you're here. >> absolutely. >> >> i thank you for shining a light on domestic violence. >> thank you for coming. and take a look outside right now. the sun is shining. it's a little deceitful, though, not nearly as warm as it looks.

i kind of like this weather we're having, very fall like. >> very fall like and a hint of early winterlike by the time we get into tomorrow morning talking about the chance of some of the first freezes of the season. i had a long drive yesterday. fall colors running about seven to ten days behind average and part of that is because we've had hardly anything in the way of cold weather. october is more than 4 degrees rm i mentioned the wind. that is a real issue. it's 58 degrees now but look at the wind. northwest averaging 28 miles an hour. it's hustling out there today. you'll notice it for sure. all the sunshine and the breeze out there today. if you thought it was cold this morning, wait until tomorrow morning.

nearly calm wind by the time you wake up tomorrow morning. it's a recipe for plummeting temperatures so by tomorrow morning i think a lot of spots west of i-95 are going to be down close to the freezing mark already have freeze warnings in northern maryland and the shenandoah valley. i fully expect that loudoun and montgomery counties will be added into some sort of a frost advisory or freeze watch so just know that's likely to expand. that tonight at 5:00, 6:00, and 11:00 to given you the latest. your ten-day forecast, only about 60 today and in the 50s tomorrow. the weekend is looking dry. i'll give you a check of that forecast for the big race sunday. back to you. thank you, chuck. that closure on beach drive and

it's over. adam tuss got an update for us and shares that with us now. >> reporter: i can tell you the good news about the beach drive project everything seems to be on schedule up to this point. another five to seven months of the work here. the work is pretty intense. you have trenches down to help with the drainage. all the watt they're would collect and then tear up the road. look at how much of the substructure is being taken down, milled and then repaved. a couple of things they didn't it expect to see wires and cables, they didn't pertain to anything and there was one other big surprise that they found

they could get some archaeological teams to check that out but, again, the good news everything seems to be going according to plan. pedestrians and cyclists have been trying to gain points. this is an active construction site. be safe. back to you. >> all right, thank you. we're trying not to take the fun out of are some sweet treats to avoid to prtect your teeth. >> and we're cookinging up some spooky goodies. edgar allen poe night just in man: hey baby, how are you? woman: i have a surprise for you. man: you have a surprise for me? narrator: at dominion, 1 in 5 new hires is a veteran. and when they're away, they miss out on a lot. but they won't miss out on financial support. because we cover any difference between their military pay and their dominion salary, and continue benefits for them
