A GAO report reveals more than 40,000 cases between 2015 and 2019. Author: Mike Gooding Updated: 6:54 PM EDT May 10, 2021
WASHINGTON Domestic abuse is a problem in civilian society, and it is also a major challenge in the military.
The Department of Defense recorded over 40,000 domestic abuse incidents involving military service members, spouses, or intimate partners from 2015 to 2019.
Of those, 74 percent were physical abuse, the rest were emotional and sexual abuse, and neglect.
In 2019 alone, the Army had 3,198 cases, the Air Force had 2,258 cases, the Navy had 1,695 cases and the Marine Corps had 904 cases. In DOD, domestic abuses are incompatible with military values and it reduces military readiness, said Brenda Farrell, a Director in the Government Accountability Office s Defense Capabilities and Management team.
