I cannot go into detail as to what crime I had been a victim of, however a few months ago I reported it to the police.
The original officer I spoke to was understanding, and so was the one who contacted me second. The one who contacted me second said he was handing my case over to an officer who deals with crime in my local area.
As I said before I cannot go into too much detail understandably. But this police officer who deals with crime in my local area has accused me of telling police specific information when I know I didn't say it, told me I need to stop being so scared of the man who has done the crime, has told me he didn't tell me something when I remember he did, rolled his eyes numerous times when I was giving a statement, told me the person doing the crime won't escalate it anymore even though he has a history of escalating and because he's been spoken to by police he's not going to do anything ever again apparently. When I told the officer I've had to alter my life due to him he asked me why would you alter your life, I told him I would rather avoid said person, officer told me I need to face him but I would rather not. They've now closed the case last week and I asked what happens if this man does something to me again and I was met with "that question implies you're going to make up something about him just to report him" I've shown nothing but evidence that I have not only avoided the person doing the crime but I've also evidence of what he's done to me.
I know history of the person who's done the crime as I have known him for years, and police speaking to him hasn't stopped him doing it to others previously. I've also told the police he has a history of false allegations and the officer says he's not going to do that. But I know the history of this man.
I feel almost victim blamed. I guess this is more of a rant so I'm sorry.
