Tracey Thurman's husband, Charles, abused her even after she left him. He would come to the house and attack her, or threaten to kill her. Tracey's numerous calls to the police for help were ignored. Even after Charles was put on probation for smashing the windshield of Tracey's car while she was in it, the police refused to arrest him for violating his probation.

When Tracey's husband next came to her house and demanded to speak to her, she immediately called the police and asked them to arrest him for violating the terms of hi4 probation as well as the restraining order.
