Yesterday's Update highlighted the widescale use of Believe The Victim investigations in England, and the role played by head prosecutor Alison Saunders who resigned in disgrace last year.

Travesties of justice always wear a human face. In this case, it was a young man named Mark, accused of rape.

The accusation was so flawed that the detective later concluded: “There was absolutely no evidence that would have supported an allegation of rape.”

The detective explained, “Items of evidence that were obtained during the investigation were not scrutinised; lines of enquiry that would support the suspect (in this case, Mark) were NOT followed up or seized and, as a result, the victim was therefore not challenged in respect of her account in a subsequent interview to clarify her version of events against this further evidence.”

A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF A "BELIEVE THE VICTIM" INVESTIGATION.

But the investigation took its toll, and on May 21, 2018, Mark took his own life -- see attached Crowd Justice petition.

We need to do everything we can to avoid future tragedies like Mark. Please share this petition on your Facebook page and with your friends, and urge them to join our campaign for justice.
