Some good news today

[EnglishGirlApproximately]

In light of the Ched Evans verdict I thought this was worth sharing (the link is to Notts police)

Long overdue

clicky

Nottingham police do seem to be more proactive than most when it comes to male violence against women. Good on them!

Glad to get some good news today. Thanks OP! Much needed.

Some of that story of what the woman went through sounds familiar, I wonder if she was a MNetter (although I guess these bastards are pretty much the same and it's often a familiar story).

Well done that woman

I agree Notts police do seem to be one of the more forward thinking police forces, let's hope we see more news like this.

Why are notts so forward thinking on this compared to others forces?

great news

but why is it so fucking noteworthy ?

(sorry, just a bit pissed off today)

Yep there should be thousands of these convictions a year.

Thank you for sharing. A glimmer of light on a dark day.

Notts were the police force involved with the woman whose story featured in the bbc3 documentary "murdered by my boyfriend".

They were highly criticised following her death for failing to protect her and made many changes as a result. It's great that they seem to have been effective and closely enforced.

I saw that. It was horrific.
