Over half of all female homicide victims in the United States are killed with a gun, most often by an intimate partner. In this episode, University of Michigan School of Public Health researcher April Zeoli explores how firearm policy—specifically red flag laws and firearm restrictions as part of domestic violence protective orders—can play a crucial role in preventing domestic violence tragedies, particularly intimate partner homicide. 
Zeoli explains Extreme Risk Protection Orders (ERPOs) and Domestic Violence Protective Orders, how they work in practice when it comes to firearm violence prevention, and how proper implementation can make a life-saving difference.
