Please tell me I didn't just read 'cab driver and convicted serial batterer' - how could any company hire a convicted serial batterer as a CAB DRIVER! Certainly makes one want to take a cab. I hope it was meant to read FORMER cab driver! My thoughts and prayers go out to this young girl - may she begin a new life and put this horrible affair behind her. They were both sick people to stay in such a relationship.
