I am working in a magistrates court and most cases that come through are domestic violence. Victims have help from IDVAs. They can use live link or screens if they feel intimidated by the defendant and help from people like me from the Witness Service. They are often moved to where the Defendant doesn't know. They get restraining orders. The Police and CPS are taking DV very seriously.
Are you irritating in RL? (light hearted)
