Background – Brother is in USCG. Found out the other day, wife has been cheating in his home when he goes on the boat. He came home a day early and found her in bed with another man…

He took wife to see psychiatrist who diagnosed her with depression with suicidal ideation and alcoholism.

They have a two month old child.

She is 19. My brother is 23. The wife has been hanging with a girl who’s boyfriend is involved in gang activity.

She is down to 90lbs and we have reason to believe she is using drugs, other than marijuana.

She has already threatened my brother with knives and is extremely violent and erratic. She still has a key to their apartment. He fears for his safety and the safety of their child.

Can he put her away? How would he go about doing this.

He is filing for divorce today.

Thanks.
CompassionateAngel-OMG! I’m with you on this one. We TOLD my brother this chick was trouble. I just fear for my brother’s safety and the baby. I’m all the way in Michigan. He’s in Missouri by himself. My father’s going down there tomorrow. Thank God. This is insane.
