Consider expanding the Good Samaritan law to immunize bystanders from obstruction charges
for coming to the defense of any abused victim by anyone.

Good Samaritan law
Not to be confused with Duty to rescue.
Good Samaritan laws offer legal protection to people who give reasonable assistance to those who are, or whom they believe to be, injured, ill, in peril, or otherwise incapacitated.[1] The protection is intended to reduce bystanders' hesitation to assist, for fear of being sued or prosecuted for unintentional injury or wrongful death.
