Seven years of physical,Willis McGahee Miami Jersey, emotional and sexual abuse culminated when a ‘sex starved’ husband set his one-bedroom house at Hubu Road, Parika, East Bank Essequibo, alight after his wife denied him the privilege.Sharon Anderson, 35, and her three children are now homeless.She related that her husband is an alcoholic and is sexually demanding. Owing to their restricted living conditions of one bedroom, a small kitchen and living room, meeting his sexual needs was difficult. They usually spread a mattress in the living room to have sex.However, Anderson finally put her ‘foot down’ on Tuesday night. She refused to have sex with him because her son was awake. This enraged the man,Tim Hardaway Jr. Michigan Jersey, who started cursing and accusing her of having another man. He was intoxicated and fell asleep after a while.Anderson noted that her husband left home at 4:00am yesterday and returned two hours later, still quarrelling. The woman claimed that he threatened to burn her in the house while she was asleep.Sharon Anderson surveying the ruinsAnderson said that around 9:00am,Mario Manningham Michigan Jersey, while she was at work in the area,Patrick Peterson LSU Jersey, she received information that her house was on fire. When she arrived her house was completely destroyed.According to a neighbour,Jarrett Lee LSU Jersey, Bibi, she saw Anderson’s husband fleeing the scene on a bicycle while the front of the house was on fire. Bibi related that she felt an intense heat and upon investigating,Sean Taylor Miami Jersey, she saw the house was on fire. She started shouting for neighbours who called for the fire service and police.Responses from both agencies were quick. Owing to the land being blocked from the main road, it was difficult for the firemen to easily access the burning house. Nevertheless, they broke a side fence and tried to put out the fire. They were however unable to save the structure.According to Anderson,Trey Burke Michigan Jersey, her husband who is 17-years her senior was previously imprisoned for domestic violence. After his release, they rekindled their relationship on the premise that he was a changed man.At first, he displayed good caring behaviour but over the past six months the abuse restarted. However, Anderson stayed because he was a good provider and she wanted a father figure in her children’s lives. Her salary as a security guard could not adequately support herself and three offspring.Anderson is extremely distraught as she is now faced with additional turmoil. She related that they were executing construction works to add another room to their humble house. Now, she has to find money to build another structure,Kobe Bryant Lower Merion Jersey, furnish it, clothe her and children, and purchase important items for them.Up to press time the police were still searching for the alleged arsonist.Anderson is seeking help to reconstruct her life as well as those of her children,Tom Brady Michigan Jersey, without her abusive husband. Her telephone number is 667-0211. |
