Restraining Order Does NOT Stop Kidnapping
Catawba County Man Accused Of Kidnapping Wife At Gunpoint - Charlotte News A restraining order was in place. It did nothing.
He kidnapped her at gunpoint and took her into the woods behind her home. Police were informed that he intended to do her harm.
It took several hours for the police to find them in the woods.
She is OK. She could easily be dead or raped.
Relying on restraining orders for your safety is absurd. They are interesting legal documents, not bullet-proof vests. If someone in your life is dangerous enough to require that you get an order of protection, you should also get yourself some real protection, and the training to use it.
Self-defense is a human right.
