I see your point, James, but if the abusive spouse is truly a nutcase and he comes after the woman he may hurt her far worse than he did before she left. Abusers will use this as a threat to keep their spouses from fleeing; and the really sick ones will act on it.

That whole Bobby Brown/Whitney Houston melodrama just disgusts me. He abuses her, she calls the police, he's arrested, she shows up at his court appearances holding his hand. If a woman with all of the options she has stays with her abuser, imagine how hard it is for a woman with nowhere safe to go to leave.
