Next, we wait to see if CPS finally pursues Emily's case.

Good news, but my worry is that it'll work in practice much like rape laws "she asked me to do it" or "deserved it" somehow.

(This was the UK supreme court).

Excellent news. She had a dreadful experience and all credit to her for pursuing this for all women.

Yes, this. Emily was very brave to pursue this and it will benefit all women. Thank you, Emily.

That’s great news. It’s honestly boggling that it would even have to be contested, but thankfully common sense has prevailed. Well done, Emily!

Emily Hunt twiter comments:
"It is the courts saying the @ cpsuk has been wrong in their interpretation of a 2003 law. The law has been there all along, now the CPS has been told to read it."

"In my case, my attacker literally told the police under caution that he knew he didn’t have my permission to take the video and that he took it for future personal gratification. But yes, with rape charge decisions at less than 1.5%, @ cpsuk obv has a victim blaming problem"

"The decision is actually that it was always against the law and the CPS’s interpretation was wrong. So yes, I am now waiting in a charging decision!"

"Here’s an article on our win in January - which this is upholding:
www.theguardian.com/law/2020/jan/28/filming-partner-without-their-consent-during-sex-ruled-a-criminal-offence "

Well done Emily & Centre for Women's Justice!
