Sinister relationship - do I report this

[talktome99]

I've recently came into contact with quite an unsavory character. I also found out that he is in a relationship with a 19 year old, and they've been together for 5 years.

He is almost 40.

I am going to the police about it, but it's unlikely that she will want him to get in trouble. Does anyone know if the police can do anything regardless?

what Upduffed said. without concrete evidence they can't do anything about it.

I'd tell the truth and let the police decide if there is anything they need to do. He may be on some kind of register making this information significant. Might the 19yo be classed as a vulnerable adult? Are they at immediate risk? Is there something else about him that made you describe him as unsavoury?

I'm with Cogito on this one.

Agree with Cog as well. I'd feel better at least mentioning it, then if something happens it does, if it doesn't, at least you did a good thing.

What exactly are you going to say to the police? "ex is in a relationship with a nineteen year old and has been for five years," unless you are related to the girl or have some responsibility for her there's really nothing you can do.

She's an adult, and unless she's prepared to confirm that she had sex with this man before she turned sixteen the police are not in a position to do anything.

There are more crimes the police can investigate above and beyond under-age sex. 'Unsavory' (sic) could mean a lot of things.

I've found a fake Facebook profile with his first name, and a part of his face in the profile photo.

His friends list is full of girls who look very young, and he was last active on there 4 years ago, so they still look young 4 years after he added them.

Surely, they must have the ability to check all of these messages?

I found this all after I found out about his girlfriend.

The more relevant information you give them, the easier it makes their job. What was it about him that repulsed you? Just the very young girlfriend or something else?
