Review the following Case: Peggys Story Peggy has lived in her current home with her husband Ross for about 20 years. She looks 70-odd, with sparkly eyes and a welcoming smile. Peggy is well known in the local community and gets on well with her neighbors. The house now looks like it could do with a paint job. Lawns are okay, could do with mowing but are not overly long. There has been a flower garden at some point but the roses now poke up through a bed of weeds. One of their windows is broken and has cardboard taped over it. One evening, Peggys neighbors hear lots of shouting and banging next door. Peggys son Karl has moved back home recently. The neighbors dont think much of him, and are worried he is causing trouble for his parents. When they hear the noise, they assume the worst and call the Police. When Police knock on the door, they are warmly greeted by Peggy. When the Police explain the reason for their visit Peggy exclaims; Oh. Oh dear. Oh Officers, you are so kind. This is a bit embarrassing. Its my husband. Hes got a bit doddery, fell over the side table and started shouting at me because he forgot it was there and just needed to feel better about himself. Its okay. Hes calmed down now hes had a drink of water. Its not his fault, he doesnt really mean it. She invites the Police in to talk with him. While Police are investigating the situation, the front door opens and a male voice shouts You better have my tea ready like I said you old cow. Peggy is transformed. She cowers
Thats my son Karl, she says and rushes to the kitchen. Karl is about 6 feet tall, thickly built, in his mid 30s. He glares at the Police: Whats happened? The old man slapped her around a bit again? Dont worry, shes used to it. He has obviously been drinking. Discuss this case. Remember to discuss all aspects of the possibilities that you see.
