Brave Voices Against Domestic Violence in Bethlehem Parade

The Beginning Over Foundation is a locally-formed grass roots group trying to cast a public spotlight on the tragedies caused by domestic violence.

Founder Heidi Markow (second from left, blond, in beret) and friends unfurled their banners and walked in Bethlehem's Halloween Parade this weekend.

Heidi's sister, Robin, was shot and killed by her estranged husband two years ago in Quakertown. Robin never knew her husband had once before tried to kill his ex-wife.

Robin's Law, introduced by State Rep. Karen Beyer, will track repeat domestic violence offenders.
