My wife works with victims of male violence and it really is staggering. Obviously murder is the extreme end of the scale that's more visible - but what you generally don't hear about is the STAGGERING number who find themselves being stalked/generally harassed by ex-partners who just won't let go, for years (sometimes decades) after a breakup. And even when they're making threats (even with recorded evidence like text messages, emails or voice messages) there's very little that can be done unless something physically happens. People end up having to uproot their whole lives and relocate, and sometimes even that isn't enough and they follow.
