As for the 'authorities'...
The police, who consistently ignore women's pleas for help and in too many cases, 'help' and 'belief' comes too late.
Same for vulnerable children. Kids die, and then the people in 'authority' are forced to pull their finger out and do their jobs for a bit until complacency sets in again and there's another tragedy which could have been avoided had they done their jobs properly.
