The guilt those women and girls feel when they DID report their rapist, our CJS did fuck all and then he raped another girl.
Shit system.
Then me AND her went together to report him and the CJS did nothing again.
Then he attacked a 17 year old girl after us both.
We decided to do a Clare Law Disclosure on him to protect the 4th victim. Police did nothing.
Then he attacked and got her pregnant and beat her when she was 26 weeks pregnant and the baby was born prem.
We’ve done every referral and report we can. Nothing has been done. We wait for the day he kills a woman.
We all felt immense guilt for each girl/woman he attacked after each of us. We are all still friends.
We are lucky we know each other and could support each other. I went to the trials of the other girls.
4 reasons:
1. Conviction rate in UK is 0.3%
2. Didn’t help any of the girls I knew
3. Hasn’t helped thousands of the women and girls I have known in my decade career
4. Guilty doesn’t mean ‘all better now’

Don’t take one fucking ounce of his responsibility OR the responsibility of our shit CJS system that likely would have NFAd or found not guilty anyway.
Love yourself, support yourself.
It’s not your fault if he continues to be a horrible human being who harms and abused others.
