The Rainmaker

The police found her beaten up, lying on the sofa and wrapped around a blanket naked. Cliff Ricker, her spouse, was intoxicated, highly agitated and he beat his wife with a baseball bat. The passive subject should be Cliff Ricker and the active subject is Kelly Ricker. The prestation is to do and the juridical tie is crimes or acts or omissions punished by law.
