Via the Drudge Report, I just learned that Latin music star Ricky Martin was the subject of a domestic abuse restraining order in Puerto Rico (see here). The identity of the person who requested this order, however, is protected under Puerto Rico’s sweeping domestic violence law, so my 2006 paper on “Domestic Violence, Strategic Behavior, and Ideological Rent-Seeking“, might (or might not) be relevant to this case. (As an aside, Ricky Martin’s “La Copa de la Vida” is my favorite World Cup theme song of all time.)
