Did A Montana Judge's Sexism Help Cause A Murder?

In Helena, MT. there was a murder in which a woman shot and killed her husband and another woman only a few weeks after the husband tried to get a restraining order to protect him from the wife that killed him.
From the Helena Independent Record: A 48-year-old Helena man whose wife allegedly fatally shot him Thursday morning had filed for an order of protection from her last month.
Joseph Andrew Gable, who died at St. Peter’s Hospital after being shot at least twice, asked a Helena District Court judge for a temporary order of protection from his wife, Michelle Coller Gable. He cited intimidation, kidnapping and stalking as the reasons, according to court documents filed Sept. 21.
The request was denied by Judge Dorothy McCarter.
“No personal danger or threat involved,” McCarter handwrote on the document denying the application.
Joseph Gable alleged in the request for an order that the day prior to filing, Michelle Gable entered his apartment through the back door as he was changing the locks in front “to keep my wife from entering unannounced and starting a confrontation.”
This led to an argument in which Michelle Gable threw his computer down a flight of stairs, breaking the laptop, he wrote.
Michelle Gable attempted to block him from exiting the apartment, Joseph Gable alleged.
He wrote that he then finished changing the lock on the front door and locked it. Joseph Gable said he tried to leave the residence, but his wife had blocked his vehicle, which was parked in the driveway, with hers.
“She jumped out of her rental car and came at me to continue the confrontation. I ran back into the house and locked the door,” he wrote.
Joseph Gable noted in documents that the couple was married but separated. He formally filed for divorce on Tuesday.
Michelle Gable, 48, is in jail facing two charges of deliberate homicide for fatally shooting her husband and his acquaintance at his apartment at 330 Cutler Street. The female victim’s name has not been released pending notification of her family. She was 50 years old and from Texas, according to police.

So, the estranged wife entered the husbands house without permission, throwing and breaking a laptop computer, tried to prevent him from leaving, blocked his car and then tried to break in again. And this is not enough to get a restraining order?
If a male had done this to a female, not only would there be a restraining order issued, the husband probably would have been thrown in jail.
So, what, in Judge McCarter's warped sexist view does it take to get a court order for a female to stay away from a male, kill a person? Oh, wait....
