Resolute: Zero Tolerance For Domestic Abuse

We support women to find their strength, determination and dignity after domestic abuse, domestic violence and coercive control.

The last sighting of Melanie Hall, 25, was inside a nightclub in Bath 30 years ago - now police have launched a fresh appeal.

'Her disappearance sparked a major police operation, but 13 years later, in 2009, her body was discovered wrapped in bin bags beside the M5 motorway. Police have made 11 arrests, but no-one has ever been charged with her murder.'

'For Melanie’s family – her parents Steve and Pat, and sister Dominique – the anguish over what happened to her, and why, will continue until justice is done.'

'The anniversary of Melanie’s death will see Avon and Somerset Police launch the Justice for Melanie campaign, which aims to take people back to the month of her disappearance in an attempt to trigger details or memories.

Messages will be displayed on the digital screen during the match between Bath Rugby and Leicester Tigers on Saturday, while advertising will appear on a van travelling around the city, and on businesses and council services.'

This is something myself, Deborah Jones, and Deborah Alderson have fought hard to bring into reality.
THE BIGGEST EXPANSION OF TAGGING IN BRITISH HISTORY!

Mother who was victim of domestic violence says family court has allowed manipulation.

She is among a dozen women ITV News has spoken to who say family courtrooms, where custody rights of children are decided, are being used as weapons for abusers.

@ResoluteSupport read the piece from Debbie Jones on the resignations of ministers key to VAWG . Well said , and totally agree- politicians only concerned with themselves not the people and roles they represent

Survivors shouldn’t have to survive the family courts too.
Jasminder’s story is a devastating reminder that #coercivecontrol doesn’t always end after leaving an abuser; it can continue through the legal system itself.

@KilledWomennw Totally preventable!!! It makes my blood boil!

Jo Shaw was killed in a blast on Sunday after her ex-partner forced his way into her Bristol home "in possession of an explosive device".
https://t.co/csZGXfaPqh
Avon and Somerset Police force has referred itself to the Independent Office for Police Conduct due to previous police contact with Jo prior to Sunday, related to "other domestic incidents". 💔

[Resolute: Zero Tolerance For Domestic Abuse @ResoluteSupport]

The proximity system would have saved her! But if police don't listen, what's the point!!! @MoJGovUK

'Sharif, a taxi driver, was given permission by the council to transport children with special educational needs to school, despite reports to police that he had abused women and children.' https://t.co/0mlBXgPeaD

Without repercussions the victims code is redundant. You need to be able to hold agencies to account if they don’t uphold the law.

[Killed Women @KilledWomennw]

Suffolk Police's application of the Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme ("Clare's Law"), which gives people the right to know if their partner had a history of domestic violence, was putting victims at risk, a watchdog has ruled.

'Only 3% of suicides related to domestic abuse in England and Wales in the past five years have resulted in any sort of prosecution.'
https://t.co/SUYkGAuswJ
'In most cases, alleged perpetrators were not investigated for their role in a partner’s suicide or any possible abuse prior to their death. In some, existing inquiries into domestic abuse were closed without explanation after the alleged victim’s death.'

'@CommissionerDA Nicole Jacobs, the domestic abuse commissioner for England and Wales, said there had been “tolerance of way too much variance” between forces after suicides related to domestic abuse, with “not enough inquisitive investigation measures” being applied in some areas at the early stages of an inquiry."'

'Asked if the loved ones of victims were facing a postcode lottery in their quests for justice, Jacobs said: “Exactly right.” She added that the low number of prosecutions was “hugely concerning” because domestic abuse was “highly repetitive”.'
