A deposition to the police is not hearsay, it's evidence.
If you're going to play armchair lawyer, get the facts straight.
A deposition without evidence quite literally is hearsay, under the proper definition of hearsay. I'm not playing a lawyer, I'm pointing out that "He said, she said," is literally nothing for a court of law to use.

Testimonial hearsay, such as depositions to the police, is evidence. You have no idea what you are talking about. Stop mansplaining
It's better safe than sorry when it comes to throwing someone in a prison. If his tactic is strangulation, I'm sure someone has documented wounds he caused, if true. With the volume of people you say were abused by him in this thread, 50% odds are bound to show results eventually.
Evidence is needed for accusations to be taken as more than warnings, generally.
