It's just an impossible situation for law enforcement to do anything about sometimes. The woman has to actually admit that she's being abused. That's usually the toughest part.
Another big challenge is the truly crazy abuser who will stop at nothing. The law punishes bad behavior far more than it deters it. Too often you see abusers who have been arrested and even convicted violate restraining orders and do whatever it takes to kill the abused. Far too often they will not stop for anything.
