Domestic violence prison gas lighting

So my daughter went through a DV situation. Her ex went to prison. By the time he gets out in Jan he would have done 2 years. Just to add he was going to be let out but got gate arrested due to breaking restraining order did more time. Then he was let out on license and broke them conditions. So back to prison. He was out for 2 weeks . So time he actually gets out it will be 2 years he's been in prison.

So social services have been involved to make sure grandson and dd are safe. For a while the ex was quite obsessed with dd. Kept saying he knew where she was. When he did not. But social services would rise about like headless chickens getting her moved.

Eventually her ex stopped talking about her so much and it's been quite.

Dd has now Been moved to a permanent home.

But her ex has told professionals he knows where she lives. But when he was questioned further. He could not answer the questions so we don't think he really knows and is just gas lighting. The thing is this then raises concerns even if it is bull shit.

It feels like dd is always going to have social services around everytime he does this gas lighting bullshit. It's almost like he's still abusing her.

Poor Dd, no peace. Is she all set up with CCTV and an alert on her number if she calls the police if he's is spotted by hr home? I hope they moved her far enough away he wouldn't really know where she is.

He does not know where she is its all bullshit . No she is not moving far away. That would make her more vulnerable. But yes safety measures are in place just incase
