He had already taken a life—and the system let him walk free. Less than a year after his release, Mark Michael Ford murdered again, leaving two families shattered and a community searching for answers. Domestic violence and intimate partner violence don’t just stay behind closed doors—they ripple through entire communities with devastating consequences. From Las Vegas to Reno, four lives were lost to the same underlying cause.
This week we’re going to narrow the focus a little bit from Domestic Violence and describe two recent tragic cases of intimate partner violence. IPV is what it’s called when violence occurs between couples who are dating or married, while DV can encompass any violence in a household, such as a parent abusing a child.
Our first case started as intimate partner violence and spun out into what was essentially a murder spree, one that destroyed the lives of two families. What makes this case so frustrating is that this wasn't the first time this murderer had taken a life.
