I know Erik personally. We have mutual friends and have know of each other since he moved to Ventura in the middle school days and in high school where he met his wife. I understand there are pressures and issues police face that we, as citizens can't comprehend, but I know for a fact that he's had violence issues with her for years, even when dating. So maybe the PD needs to look at psych screening more closely, because I and a few of our friends were stunned to know he had become a police officer. Not a good mix.
