The Walking Dead: What Life Was Like Before the Apocalypse

Ed Peletier was a charming man when Carol first met him. She fell in love and eventually married him. In 2003, she gave birth to their daughter, Sophia, and shortly after, he began to abuse her. Ed's constant physical abuse caused her shoulder to be dislocated several times. Ashamed of her marriage and failed attempts to escape, Carol found a sense of community with an online group of women who were also victims of domestic violence and too afraid to leave their abusers.
