    On December 11th, 2017, Margarita Gracheva's husband, Dmitry, took her into an isolated forest and cut off her hands with an ax.  Doctors were able to recover one of her hands during a highly complex surgery.  Russia decriminalized domestic violence, so Dmitry's sentence was only 14 years.  Margarita is now an advocate and has a TV show where she helps other victims of violence.
