  The Weaponization of Protection Orders: A Legal Loophole for Abuse and Control Protection orders were designed as a safeguard, a legal mechanism to shield victims from harm and harassment. In cases of domestic violence, stalking, or genuine threats, these orders serve a critical role in ensuring safety. However, what happens when they are abused? What happens when families use protection orders as a weapon—not for protection, but for control, coercion, and punishment? The consequences are devastating, as I have personally experienced. The Personal Cost of a Weaponized Protection Order I am currently living in conditions that most would find inhumane.
