If he's been physically abusive to her, she needs to get out immediately, and get an emergency protective order when she does, which will likely give her temporary custody of the kids, and she can leave with them until custody is determined by the court. I would advise you to contact the local domestic violence programs near her and ask for assistance. She will need an attorney in Kentucky to assist her, and she should be able to get representation for free through Legal Aid or another pro bono agency, on the basis of the domestic violence. Don't waste time; act immediately and get them to safety.
