"Domestic violence survivors, advocates and even some in law enforcement describe a fundamental flaw in the system: An abuser who violates a restraining order rarely faces consequences. The tool, they say, is little more than a paper tiger. This can leave people exposed, or, with a false sense of security that could place them in greater danger...Stephanie Saxton’s abuser violated her restraining order at least 25 times, showing up at her home whenever he pleased. When Saxton called the police, she said, they offered little help and suggested she file for divorce."
