Reporting Sexual Assault
7 Answers
Hi all
I'm not going to go into full details but I need some advice.
My ex sexually assaulted me 3 times during our relationship, there was one time last year that I had told 2 friends about (still have the messages)
I had to call the police last week as he had threatened me and during their routine questions they asked if he had ever sexually assaulted me and I said yes and it all came out.
I now have to do a video statement with them (none of this would have come out if I wasn't asked).
My question is even though I'm going to make the statement would he still be arrested even though I don't want to press charges? He has been arrested for rape before but apparently the case was dropped on her insistence.
I just want this on record so if he does do something again then he is known.
What will happen after I give me statement?
Thanks

Of course I'll give the police everything I can. Messages from him saying he's a bad person (not telling me why) that he's a manic depressive, that he's a compulsive liar. His confession that he was raped by a family member when he was younger. But I don't want to put myself through a lot of stress when as I said it's his word against mine (not long had a very bad miscarriage and don't want extra upset heaped on me)
