b'Most of the time when we hear about domestic violence in the news, it\\u2019s because something tragic happened.\\xa0 Usually it\\u2019s a perpetrator who assaulted a target, causing extreme injury or even death, such as in the case of Tracey Thurman when Buck stabbed her 13 times and stomped on her while a police officer did not intervene. Sometimes targets will go through the legal system for protection, as Tracey Thurman did, and obtain a restraining order against their abuser.\\xa0 We don\\u2019t hear about the times when the restraining orders work, we usually hear about the times when the perpetrator violates it and causes damage. This brings us to some important questions.\\xa0Are restraining orders worth more than the paper they\\u2019re written on?\\xa0 Is it wise to try and obtain one? \\xa0Or will it just make matters worse? Today\\u2019s episode is a Targeted Topic, a stand-alone episode that you can listen to even if you\\u2019re not familiar with the domestic violence case we\\u2019ve been covering this season.\\xa0 Facebook Page: \\xa0https://www.facebook.com/targetedpodcast/ Facebook Group: \\xa0https://www.facebook.com/groups/TargetedPodcast/ website:\\xa0 www.targetedpodcast.com email:\\xa0 \\xa0 \\xa0targetedpodcast@gmail.com Twitter:\\xa0 @targetedpodcast Merchandise: We have two store now! 1.\\xa0https://targetedpodcast.threadless.com\\xa0 \\xa0 \\xa0 \\xa0\\xa0 2. \\xa0https://www.teepublic.com/user/targetedpodcast \\xa0 Resources in the US: \\xa0 Need\\xa0help?
