    I think this is the bigger problem, actually. It could have prevented a number of femicides.

      For real.

      The law in a lot of places does not allow police to do anything to help someone, before their life has already been risked.

      Unfortunately the first attempt on someone’s life can be just as lethal as a hypothetical second.
