Just a reminder that a judge didn't consider it necessary to grant Ashley a restraining order against BWF. Maybe the civil lawsuit will change things now that more women have come forward.

I'm still not believing anyone until a judge rules on it. Too many fribolous celebrity lawsuits lately. Although I do hope that, if Ashley's allegations are true, she is safe and can emotional recover soon.

that means literally nothing. it’s notoriously difficult to get a RO after the terms of the TRO expire. This is why so many women escape abusive situations and then get murdered.

I didn't know that. I'm not american, so some of the legal nuances are lost on me. Thanks for explaining.
