Hello,
there has been an ongoing case where the police have failed to protect me and my family. Evidence has been refused by them and won’t speak to the witnesses until a complaint over 6 months ago. Defendant breached bail conditions and wasn’t followed up. There was no initial risk assessment even though we have violent behaviour on video. Also lots of calls to police as an emergency. Child under 10 witnessed this behaviour of threats and very much affected them. Police never offered support until day before pretrial even knowing there was a breakdown in the mental health of the victims. As they refused to take evidence there was over 20 videos sent to them which they said in an email that they’ve added to the case file, only to find out 6 months later that due to our complaint they will now take the evidence and lied about taking it months earlier. The charge is for harassment with no violence even though there’s proof of violence, unwanted attention, unwanted gifts, breaching my privacy rights and caused severe mental health problems. They refuse to let the victim speak to cps about the decision not to prosecute for stalking with fear of violence and alarm and distress, and consider we should be grateful there will be a conviction of harassment as a summary offence.
have the police got a right to not let the victim speak to cps? How can the complaint system work if it’s all internal and are covering each other’s backs??
is it wise to tip off the press about the situation and upcoming court date? The complaint has been passed on to at least 7 different officers with no one being held accountable for the mistakes and failing to protect. They refuse to put details of our telephone calls into writing as confirmation even though this is a complaint they’re dealing with. What rights do I have to get the charge changed?? The defendant was actually arrested for stalking and harassment but the student police officer rushed the investigation because he was going on holiday. What rights have I got to speak to the cps or let the judge know my concerns? The police have simply got the basic information just so they can get a conviction without much effort and are stopping the chance of the case being referred to the crown court to deal with.
any help I would very much appreciate
