Mmmmm. I'm torn. Listen to the guys of experience on this one, I think.
Although I will say .... she said, "I couldn't hang up on him." Ok, if that's where she is, she's got a ways to go and some work to do. It's very very important (IMHO) for her to be ABLE to hang up on him. She wasn't coerced or threatened back into her marriage. It was her choice. She needs to fully own that. Part of the consequences of that choice is being able to tell outside parties, "NO!" and mean it.
If you run him off, seems to me you're rescuing......
ETA: If she gets to the point where she IS hanging up and he's still calling .... go get him.
