You bring up another valid point that I had also touched on. The legal.system is not going to change on it's own because it has no incentive to.

Men do not care about violence or violence against women until it's on their doorstep. That's unlikely to change any time soon.

Public outcry didn't inspire change.

Maybe public attempts to solve the problem will. Because it will inevitably be messy. They'll (the justice system) be forced to re-evaluate how they're handling the problem of violence or surrender to anarchy.
