Story here. Excerpt:

'Raleigh, Fayette, Summers, Wyoming, Monroe and Nicholas counties have joined a statewide, online domestic violence registry.

The new database was created as a way to secure the safety of domestic violence victims and recognize ongoing disputes. It was launched in March after receiving an $815,000 federal grant to compile court records from each county in West Virginia and download them into a nationwide database.

“The Domestic Violence Registry gives law enforcement officers access to protective orders that have been ordered in court,” said Tonia Thomas, team coordinator for the West Virginia Coalition against Domestic Violence.

They will be able to be accessed electronically, avoiding the delay they may have with paper orders.

“If they don’t have a data terminal in their car, they can call the State Police detachment or their emergency operations center and be able to obtain those orders right away,” Thomas added.'

YAY, more women can use police officers in that State to beat the crap out of, or kill their no longer wanted lover.

Since restraining orders are as easy to get as a take out pizza, and no proof is required other then a mere allegation, the violent by proxy women now have another option at their disposal.

1. Get restraining order

2. Let him take your car to work one day

3. Call cops and report your car stolen

4. Let them beat him for you when they discover he has a listing on the State DV registry.

Yep, this legislation leaves no doors open at all for abuse.
