against the law to punish the victim of domestic violence (T/F)?

[David To]

I have a property.

1) lease was originally for a couple (man and woman)

2) in May 2020, man took himself out of the lease (because woman was in an abusive relationship so she states and failed a restraining order against the man so man moved out)

3) Woman took advantage of eviction moratorium and refused to pay me anything for 10 months onwards

4) Woman no longer lives on my property at end of Jan 2021 because I finally managed to evict her end of Jan 2021

5) Now, I've been communicating with her and trying to get her to complete Covid Rental Assistance programs so I can recover the 10 months back rent without having to go through small claims court

6) So far, I've been rejected in two programs (one of the program states that woman didn't provide enough proof / evidence)

7) So right now, I'm looking into pursuing woman in small claims court in November

8) She argues she has no money or anything and is living in a safe house and to protect her from her abuser, and that she's also homeless

9) She states "
I have no assets, no savings, and no income. I won’t be returning to work for the foreseeable future because I’m now disabled. I have nothing….. therefore I have nothing to give you."

10) She states "
It is against the law to punish the victim of domestic violence for removing the abuser from the home. He was the main financial provider and is equally responsible."

SO WHAT THE HECK? Does anyone know for a fact that "IT IS AGAINST THE LAW TO PUNISH THE VICTIM OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE FOR REMOVING THE ABUSER FROM THE HOME. HE WAS THE MAIN FINANCIAL PROVIDER AND IS EQUALLY RESPONSIBLE."

I think she's trying to distract and get me to go after the abusive ex. I have no proof or evidence that she has no money, no assets, no nothing since the eviction moratorium doesn't require a tenant to prove anything. WHAT A FREAKING NIGHTMARE / MESS THESE TWO TENANTS TURN OUT TO BE FOR ME. 

BUT THANKFULLY, I HAVE OTHER GREAT TENANTS ON BOTH OF MY PROPERTIES RIGHT NOW.
