I have no doubt that Romone Collier did exactly what he is accused of. He did the same thing to me on several occasions. It took me years to get away. I would happily testify that he has done it before and WILL do it again.
I called the police on him one time. so it is on record.He has a history of domestic violence. One day he will go too far.
