Not that restraining orders mean anything but I’m stunned that any judge would deny one to a woman.Men? OK,but not women. There’s no downside for the judge in granting one...it’s not as if he/she will be removed from the bench for granting an unwarranted one,whereas refusing to grant one and the woman winds up dead means bad news!

More like black men will hook up with obese white women. The woman gets a reasonably handsome and usually physically fit guy, and if he doesn’t pay his share of the bills she doesn’t care.

Protective orders are mainly useful against guys who are of no actual physical threat.

The hardest thing is to convince them there is real danger.

Truth. Got someone I’m working with right now ... “oh he wouldn’t do that” (kill her). The red warning flags are all over the place .... she ‘knows’ because I’ve told her in the most blunt/stark language possible, but she just can’t believe it. He also has guns, which increases her risk of being killed by more than 1000%.

Judge is black or female

There is, he or she thinks they OWN YOU.

Take them to a battered woman meeting, listen to the stories.

Look how great Nicolle and OJ did, screaming and yelling through court orders and slit throats.

Do you think a protective order would have prevented this? If so, how exactly.

No, its just a piece of paper. However; it would have provided her and the kids access to a safe house and other alternatives for protection against the thug.

Expecting the government to help is foolish.
