BIA reversed IJ's finding that respondent was not eligible for asylum under Matter of A-R-C-G-, 26 I&N Dec. 388 (BIA 2014), because she did not make efforts to leave her husband or report his abuse to the police. The Board found that the respondent was unable to leave the relationship because he regularly beat and raped her, and threatened to harm her if she ever left him.
