He essentially did. He filed an order of protection against Lori saying she couldn't go within so many yards of him, his home, his workplace and JJ's school and all communication regarding exchanging their son for custody had to be done via text message. Unfortunately Lori could never be found to be served with the order and Charles seemingly let it drop when he dropped the divorce in March 2019 and moved back to Texas with JJ. Thinking of Charles as an abused spouse really puts things into perspective. Everyone always wonders why psychologically abused spouses don't just leave-- it's part of the abuse IMO. Once the abused leaves the abusers turn it all around on the victim, making them feel guilty for "abandoning them" to the point that the victim of abuse feels he has done something wrong and actually apologizes and tries to make up for it. Then the abuser goes back to being a super loving person for a while (on the surface anyway). This totally explains why CV asked Lori to come back to Texas and then moved to AZ at Lori's behest and tried to make the marriage work even after she threatened his life, tried to ruin him financially, stole his belongings, etc. In Jan/Feb 2019 CV is filing for divorce, filing an orde rof protection, trying to have Lori committed and fearing for his life. In April 2019 he is buying Tylee a new Jeep and by June 2019 he rents Lori a house in Chandler, AZ. By July he was murdered. Nobody ever thinks of a strong, physically fit man of 61 years of age as a DV victim but I totally believe he was being psychologically abused. MOO.
