As one approach to domestic violence, some States have adopted a policy of mandatory arrest and charging, where evidence permits. Other States have adopted policies requiring police to conduct an investigation, with thorough documentation and interviews of victims, witnesses and alleged offenders, whenever an incident of domestic violence is reported. Each approach, in their own way, seeks to ensure that measures are in place to protect victims.
