Change the statute of limitations on harassment
The Issue
IF YOU FEEL YOU ARE BEING HARASSED OR STALKED PLEASE CONTACT EITHER PALADIN OR THE SUZY LAMPLUGH TRUST
The statue of limitation on harassment is 6months in the UK.
I've been living in a nightmare for the past two years. Every day brings a new wave of anxiety and fear. Imagine having your door bashed at all times of the day, receiving threatening letters, and finding your phone number plastered on lampposts labeled "call for sex". Not only have I suffered constant harassment, but my friends and family have been dragged into this chaos as well. My son, who has ADHD, has seen his behavior escalate to the point of self-harm due to the constant stress and fear enveloping our home. I've installed a camera to monitor my front door 24/7, a testament to the daily fear I live in.
I reached out to the police with 150 pieces of evidence, hoping they would see the severity of my situation. Sadly, they have done little to help. They treat each incident as isolated rather than acknowledging the consistent pattern of harassment that overshadows my life. This lack of action highlights a major flaw in the current harassment laws: the statute of limitations. This statute effectively gives perpetrators the green light to intimidate, harass, and torment victims without fear of prolonged accountability.
The law must change. The impact on victims and their safety should be our primary concern, not an arbitrary timeline that restricts justice. No one should endure continuous abuse simply because the statute of limitations expires. We need a legal system that recognizes the cumulative effect of harassment and provides victims the protection and justice they deserve.
Join me in calling for a revision of the harassment law to remove the statute of limitations. Let us urge lawmakers to focus on the safety and well-being of victims. By signing this petition, you are taking a stand against harassment and advocating for a legal system that supports victims over aggressors. Please sign this petition to bring about this necessary change.
