Update: AIO? I think my friend might be abusing his gf

Yesterday I posted about how I thought my friend was abusing his girlfriend and I got an overwhelming amount of responses telling me to get her help.
I just wanted to tell you all that my girlfriend got in contact with the girl and she pretty much confirmed he is abusing her, but she doesn’t know how to get help.
I guess this was way worse than I thought and it’s been going on for a while. I feel bad I wasn’t able to step in sooner.
My girlfriend is trying to convince her to go to the police but she is scared because she’s had traumatic experiences with police officers in the past. Either way we’re definitely gonna get her help, my girlfriend’s parents have also offered to let her live with them for a bit since her home is not a safe space for her either.
Anyways I’ll be sure to keep yall updated and we are going to make sure this girl gets safe.

AIO? I think my friend might be abusing his gf

So I’m 18M, my bro is 17M and his girl is 18F. They’ve been dating for a few months and I met her yesterday at his grad party.
Everything was fine during the party but afterwards when we were both there helping clean up he started asking super weird towards her. At first he was just asking super cold but then when she tried to ask him what was up he suddenly grabbed her wrist and started talking to her in a really aggressive tone. I didn’t really hear what he was saying bc I was more off to the side but she looked really scared after and just had her head kinda down.
Honestly I should’ve stepped in at the moment but he’s my friend and I was kind of in a little bit of shock. I didn’t expect this to be something he’d do.
I talked to our other friend about this and he thinks I’m in the wrong and that there’s not enough evidence to just assume he was abusive and that I’m an asshole for bringing it up. Is it true I’m in the wrong? I really was just trying to help and make sure everyone’s safe
