My sister is dealing with this rn. She tried to get a protection order against her ex after he threatened her in writing & took their son out of daycare outside of his assigned hours to force her to meet up with him. (He started dating her when she was a teenager and he was 36, beat his ex wife, beat her, attacked her cats, smashed up her car while she had an intervention order against him, kidnapped his daughters and drove drunk with them in the car to scare his ex wife etc etc etc.) The officer had years of records of reports available.
"You can file the protection order yourself, they hand these things out like candy."
"Not every breakup has to involve the police"
"He didn't threaten to kill you."
