Non molestation order breach

32 replies

I really need advice on how to handle the police and if I can actually get them to stop this.

I was awarded a non molestation order in April 19 against my ex father to my oldest child, he doesn't have contact due to a nai to child resulting in a black eye, ss dreamed him a risk and he refused to engage with the risk assessment so it was no contact. He then turned on me, it's my fault and so smashed up my property, threatened me and my family and we had to move.

the last few months my ex has been increasingly becoming erratic.
There has been a few public postings online about me, using my full name and asking people to pass messages to my kids at school. He put a recorder on his daughter while she met me to see her brother and then said he knows where I live and will bring me a surprise (I don't think he does know where I live and was just trying to scare us) but yesterday myself and my husband received death threats after he made fake profiles and sent messages to himself basically making my husband out to be a "nonce" his words, it's clear as day these messages are fake, but he posted these all over my husbands business page and since given out my husbands number for his friends to call us at all hours telling me and my husband "I'll slit your necks" "you're going to die" "burn bitches"

I went to the police yet again, the last few times they haven't been at all helpful, and even blamed me, after someone saw a post of him getting increasingly wound up about me and started saying some worrying things, they text me and said they think he's coming to my house (old house) but I was told by the police not to let people wind me up and stop reading these text messages. Of course I going to read texts coming to my phone. I reported the transphobic abuse (he said some vile things) he posted about my step dad, but they said as my step dad hasn't seen it (thankfully) it's not a crime. Again this was sent to me by someone else.

But now he's made direct contact and we've got the death threats I thought now they'll do something, but if they just did something 2 months ago we wouldn't be here.

But I'm still waiting for them to come and see me it's been 32 hours since I originally went to the station, I've waited in all afternoon today like I was asked but got a call to ask when I'm available, I told them I had an appointment but that's was "miscommunicated" I was told they come out in order of risk and vulnerability so I'll just have to wait, they might be available tomorrow morning .. 🙄

I'm now thinking this isn't going to get dealt with, they don't seem interested in the fact I'm worried sick an absolute mess and really think we're going to die soon, my husbands phone is going mad, and it's his business phone, we've turned it off now. I'm numb and don't see a way out, with no actual help from people I thought would protect us. I'm scared my children are in the house and I just don't know how to make the police do something?

What do I do?

I have just read your thread, I hope everything has calmed down for you or he is in prison, I have had similar and the police can be worse than useless.

Just to say poor you
Police can be great
They can also be pretty useless

Lots of love to your family
Stay strong

If your unhappy with how its being dealt with, call 101, make a complaint and an inspector will get in touch, it maybe you need a new officer in the case. This is still a domestic incident and should be dealt with as such x

Thanks everyone,

He was arrested and a detective got involved, the detective was actually very good, really respectful. He was again given a warning and told all further calls will now be recorded under stalking, since it has been quiet, but he is contesting the non molestation order I'm currently waiting for 😔
Hearing tomorrow over the phone and hopefully I'll be successful as I dread to think what's going to happen if I don't get it.

We've had cctv installed, as well as cameras in both cars, my work have his picture of he ever shows up there.

We where considering moving again, but with my eldest bring disabled it's only going to effect him again and I can't cope with 6 more months of trying to get him settled after he's only just settled now from the last move. But my husbands friend lives 200 miles away, said if we ever do need to leave, he has a job for my husband and his family owns a few properties we could rent one if we need to. So that's peace of mind knowing that putting 200 miles between us and him can be done easily if things escalate again.

I'm just drained with it all now, and in two minds of going to the station with my new order if I get it, to let them kniw I expect actual action if I where to ever call again.

Glad to hear there was some good news for you, hopefully this arrest will go in your favour for the non mol order , good luck.

Just want to cry 😭😭😭

We did have a court date for 20th April regarding the non molestation order, I called on the Wednesday due yo covid 19 to check it was all still going a head, to be told no court hearings are. So I sent an email to ask about a new court date. This hearing did infact go a head without me. The hearing over the phone today now the respondent, my ex, won't answer his phone but the judge said he won't give me any order because he's not done anything for 2 months 😭 which means I'm left with a police force that won't act and now zero non molestation order. I've been crying none stop since this morning and have no idea who to turn to now. The police, local authorities and now the court won't help us, what the f do I do

To be honest, I think that post is unhelpful and lacks empathy. The OP is obviously scared for her and her family.
It's obvious that in the event of an emergency or an incident she will summon the emergency services, but what if it is the middle of the night when they are sleeping and they are not aware of his presence?
It's not appropriate to be dismissive, I've been in a similar situation and been terrified that the person will hurt me.

To the OP, keep onto the police, insist that they enforce the non-molestation order.
It may also be worth discussing your concerns with social services tomorrow and say that you are frightened that his erratic behaviour is not normal and he is a risk to the children.
He's breached the non-molestation order but also potentially committed other crimes too. The police need to step up and be more proactive.
Good luck.
