Amy’s Story: A Fight for Protection

Amy Diane Homan McGee did everything she could to escape the grip of abuse—seeking protection through the courts and local police. In a moment of “enough is enough,” she tried to build a life of safety and peace for herself and her children. But then, Amy’s life was taken by the very man she had fought so hard to get away from. This episode tells the story of Amy’s strength, her fight for protection, and the overlooked dangers that could have saved her life. It’s a reminder that leaving isn’t the end of the battle for many survivors—it’s often when the danger escalates most. If you or someone you know is experiencing domestic violence, you are not alone.
