Pro-arrest policies for intimate partner violence can strengthen the legal response to such incidents by ensuring that perpetrators face immediate consequences, potentially deterring future violence. They also promote a victim-centered approach, as victims may feel more supported when law enforcement takes decisive action. However, weaknesses include the potential for unintended consequences, such as the arrest of victims in cases of mutual violence, or the exacerbation of tensions between law enforcement and marginalized communities. Additionally, these policies may not address the underlying issues of power and control that fuel intimate partner violence, necessitating comprehensive support services alongside legal measures.
