@DrCorleoneMD @ForWomenScot @SexMattersOrg @STILLTish @soniasodha @judgejules75 @JeanHatchet @GussieGrips @K_IngalaSmith Perhaps because they know I’m not and know what actually went down?

The police sat on the evidence that would have exonerated me at investigation stage. DC Dave “13 is the age of consent” Scott did not investigate! The consequences for all citizens are chilling! All they can say is they’re “deeply sorry for the inconvenience” 🤬

- 2025-04-16 10:35:19
This proves that the information proving my innocence was known to @PoliceScotland and should have been disclosed to @COPFS had there actually been any sort of investigation- which of course there wasn’t! Because why let the truth get in the way of a good witch hunt?

Well I sent a SAR to @PoliceScotland on 11th June 2024. They’re supposed to respond within one month. I only got a response this morning at 8.01am!

As police said to me this morning “all it takes is two people to lie and that’s a persons life destroyed”. I maintain my innocence. I will be appealing and there is a perverting the course of justice investigation so I won’t make any further comments.

@Moore22K @CaptainVirgilx @BGatesIsaPyscho Why do you believe that you are entitled to sight of a strangers family photographs? That’s extremely odd and entitled behaviour. She doesn’t owe you shit! You can stamp your feet and have your little mantrum all you want. They are private family photos.

@PoliceScotland @COPFS Oh it gets better- Mark went on to rape and abuse two more women that I know of after I reported, after their decision. Let’s face it it’s probably more! That’s entirely on COPFS head and not mine. I wonder how many other perpetrators they’ve done this with?
- 2025-03-17 19:55:16
@PoliceScotland @COPFS Nope! I have found that @COPFS decided not to prosecute. Again using the same lines they’ve used over Stuart’s behaviour “although deeply unpleasant not criminal” WTAF?! But they decided to try to silence me. https://t.co/NIu53yDyG0

@PoliceScotland @COPFS I did so because I found out that I wasn’t his only victim. I have lots of evidence of that however I will not post it here so as to respect the privacy of the other victims- it’s their story to tell not mine and I won’t betray them like that.
- 2025-03-17 19:48:56
I have a much more detailed confession also - however I will err on the side of caution and not post that here. But many people who know me have seen it. But and here’s the big one @PoliceScotland have and so have @COPFS - you see I reported him. I got brave and I reported him!

@_leoniethomas Not much has changed. We’ve had ladies experience similar situations recently. I wanted to highlight how hard it can be to actually leave because it’s often said “why didn’t you just leave?”
- 2025-03-11 22:00:09
@GuideScot @AdvocateHalley The head of children and families at one point, John Stevenson, was very involved with certain individuals like Bob Henderson and Andrew Lothian. I count my self lucky to have got a half assed nonpology from him in 2017 - only took him 15 years to apologise!
- 2025-03-11 17:19:10
@KBGreyhoundlady I did complain but it didn’t get me anywhere. They only rehoused me once I ended up in a refuge after he stole the children. Only then did they acknowledge the abuse. But if they’d helped us before that wouldn’t have happened. That gets me angry still all these years on.

We were failed by every professional that should have known better. Who should have been there for support and to get us to safety. But rather than accept failings many professionals will do/say anything rather than “we got it wrong and we’ll make sure it doesn’t happen again”

12) but it doesn’t stop the abuse….eighteen months later he steals our children and I have the fight of my life to stay in their lives. He still to this day stalking and smearing me and now also our daughter….
- 2025-03-11 09:57:53
back at the apartment. But I arrived there and he’s there already- he got a lift! \nMy Gran speaks to me the next day and tells me he’s not allowed to treat me that way and I don’t have to put up with it. So when we fly home I throw him out change the locks and get brave.
- 2025-03-11 09:55:25
11) My brother pays for us to have a night out - we go to the cheesecake factory- on our way back to the apartment he’s very aggressive and shouting. I’m walking ahead. The sheriff pulls up and asks if I’m alright. I tell him no. He lets me go I think I’m going to tell everybody
- 2025-03-11 09:52:55
10) On a family holiday with my whole family and some friends for my brothers wedding. He gets drunk every night and verbally abuses me, he makes me get him breakfast every day before I’m allowed to tend to the children. I want to scream back but I don’t want a scene….
- 2025-03-11 09:49:36
9) he has me beaten up by three of his female cousins. I go to the police with my mother and beg for help - a female officer tells me that refuges are “not nice places” and “social work will come for your kids so probably best to return”. I reluctantly do. I can’t lose my babies.
- 2025-03-11 09:46:01
8) I try to leave again- but then a family meeting is had - his family not mine- I’m to be watched more closely (I already feel cadged) - not allowed anywhere alone at all. They tell me I’m ill. I’m not. That’s his narrative.
- 2025-03-11 09:41:17
7) I go back to the council begging them to help - I have bruises and cuts this time and my toddler son is telling them Daddy makes mummy cry because he hits her. They send me away- back to the abuse.
- 2025-03-11 09:39:34
I make my first physical attempt to leave - he catches me whilst we are waiting on our second bus and forces me to come home with the children.
- 2025-03-11 09:38:19
6) I try reporting to the police and am asked “what are you doing to make him do that?” And “are you sure you want to go down that road”. I’m told to go home where more assaults and rapes await…
- 2025-03-11 09:33:41
5) I told a midwife he’d pushed me on the stairs prior to my waters breaking (at 34 weeks) and she completely ignored me as if I’d just said “lovely weather today”
- 2025-03-11 09:32:03
4) 2000, Pregnant with our 2nd child I told another GP who’s comment was “well you’ve made your bed you’ll just need to lie in it”
- 2025-03-11 09:29:39
3) I told our health visitor about the abuse and she told me she’d known Steven and his brother since they were babies and that he was a nice boy with lovely brown eyes and I should feel lucky that he stood by me!
- 2025-03-11 09:27:50
2)1999, I told our family GP what was happening and how I wanted to leave. He told me I’d just “done things the wrong way round” by having a child out of wedlock. And that’s why this was happening to me.

Sharing my experiences of trying to leave my first abusive relationship in the late 90’s early 2000’s:\n1) 1999, I went to @Edinburgh_CC and begged for help. I was told to go home and just not let him in. That night I was beaten by him in front of our baby son.

For more insight into this “lady” I do highly recommend reading A judicial monstering by @AdvocateHalley - it’s not just victims of historical abuse that she treats in such a disgraceful manner. She has brought the judiciary into disrepute with her abhorrent behaviour.

@cruelladecooke @JudgesScotland @COPFS Family court is a circus of horrors. Sheriffs will often say things there they’d never get away with in actual criminal court.

For those asking- yes I did complain! My complaint was never answered.
- 2025-02-26 19:47:06
@ArabianShark Oh that’s made my sides split pal. Fiona Tait was a sheriff in the Scottish courts nothing to do with Sharia! Keep fooling yourself!
- 2025-02-26 19:44:04
@lascapigliata8 Exactly. I did put in a formal complaint but it was never properly responded to. Here’s part of my lengthy complaint and the responses. I first complained in July 2018. Then chased up in September. https://t.co/t3v6Gvfaai
- 2025-02-26 19:33:51
@lascapigliata8 She’s reduced the sentence for a sex offender before and has form for being horrific to mothers in family court.
- 2025-02-26 18:41:39
@roorooyes4 Or Humza but I’ve got a feeling it was Swinney upon his appointment as first minister which feels like a double betrayal as he’s my MSP and allegedly supports my campaign 🤷♀️
- 2025-02-26 17:56:27
@TempleRockBitch Promoted on the recommendation of @JohnSwinney I believe. I’ve a feeling that it’s a recommendation he may later regret making. I know so many other women who’ve experienced her in family court or as victims of male violence. She’s shocking!
- 2025-02-26 17:46:20
The criminal investigation referred to was for my ex committing section 20 offences against a child! https://t.co/9HAWxtCFuB
- 2025-02-26 17:41:51
This was the overall outcome. He was to get no PRRs and no contact. Fiona Tait “forgot” to sign the order which meant that it may have been used toilet paper for all it was worth! She knew his history and pattern of behaviour! Talk about failing upwards! https://t.co/x2IhDQw4Jt
- 2025-02-26 14:59:56
@soulfoodie Our judiciary is anything but just and the family court is just a circus of horrors- a playground for abusers to weaponise children in further abuse of victims.
- 2025-02-26 14:57:37
Furthermore she chastised me for being tearful at that hearing! I hadn’t even had his funeral yet by that stage. Trauma upon trauma! How she sleeps at night I do not know!
- 2025-02-26 14:55:49
At the point she said this to me Stuart Hunter had been my ex for 5 years and was convicted of domestic abuse related offences. She’d also forced me to come to a hearing in July 2017 when I was actually in hospital for a PPH following the loss of Brodie.
- 2025-02-26 14:51:38
Without “fear or favour” - you lot having a giraffe? She made a malicious referral to social services in 2018 after “forgetting” to sign the no contact order that would have protected my children and I! \n“Forgot” my bahoukie!! She knew exactly what she was doing!

@NoShirleyNo “PS my husband says you look like a homeless person” - what is she? Like 12 years old in the school playground? Ridiculous behaviour from an adult. “My husband says” spoken like a true feminist lol \n😳🥴

@PamGosalMSP As a mother of four daughters I thank you sincerely for this. Mixed sex toilets and changing rooms have been the bane of our lives for the last few years.
- 2025-02-26 09:31:28
@RynnBrooke If any male member of the judiciary is angry at a woman speaking the truth about the abuse she’s suffered 1) he shouldn’t be in the job. 2) there’s a 99.9% he’s a perpetrator himself or at least holds harmful views about MVAWG.
- 2025-02-26 09:19:58
@RynnBrooke Apparently “it gets murky” and “the sheriff doesn’t like it and will get angry” - oh dear I’m being threatened with a man getting angry at me for telling the truth - like that hasn’t been the case for nearly 3 decades now. https://t.co/ackugQp7M9
- 2025-02-26 09:14:11
@RynnBrooke Oh he was told in no uncertain terms. I pointed to the huge file of evidence and reminded him my ex is convicted. Then it was that I “misunderstood” - I misunderstood nothing.
- 2025-02-26 08:50:22
@dorcas_eatch It’s cruel and it’s insane! I’m so sorry that you’ve experienced that too
- 2025-02-26 08:47:08
I was there. I know what happened. The evidence is in my medical records, in MARRACs, in police reports, in press and in my campaign work! It is well documented. Of all the women to try that nonsense with- I’m the wrong choice! https://t.co/0lEkSehPk8
- 2025-02-26 08:42:48
When you try to deny reality to a victim of domestic abuse or sexual violence or stalking you are in fact engaging in gaslighting. You might not like the word or want to align yourself with the behaviour but it is a fact and a major red flag! https://t.co/NO3eVCO9bN
- 2025-02-26 08:40:03
A member of the judiciary who is allegedly supporting me said this “the abuse exists only in the realms of your mind” - when I challenged him on that (my ex is convicted!) he then proceeded to try to gaslight me into believing he hadn’t said what he said! https://t.co/Gm5LLVECE1

- 2025-02-21 07:18:40
@neilcgray Is it though? I know folk waiting years for counselling and therapy on the NHS in Tayside and Fife. Young women chucked off waiting lists for being “too traumatised” and left floundering with no support. That’s nothing to be proud of Mr Gray.
- 2025-02-21 07:11:24
I have never once received nor ever asked for a single penny for any press, podcast, radio or tv appearance. I’ve done it solely to get my campaign out to a wider audience. So my ex and his mob can wind their necks in and keep my name out their mouths!
- 2025-02-21 06:54:47
@PamGosalMSP The staff still get their single sex facilities in schools- it’s the female pupils that don’t. When I reported issues like the assault on my daughter and the fact she, her sister and friends were going to McDonalds to use the toilets I was smeared as a transphobic bigot.
- 2025-02-19 11:23:19
@Wass2020 @LucyHunterB I’m sure I seen a YouTube video on this and human women living longer to protect their families and help look after grandchildren or something like that?
- 2025-02-19 08:41:28
@LucyHunterB @Wass2020 I’m starting to go through it now - I don’t get hot flushes or sweats- I just get quite warm at night to the degree I need to put my heater off and open a window. The brain fog is the worst. My hormones keep coming back normal but Dr said this could last up to 15 years 😩

Post Separation Abuse: a 🧵
- 2025-02-18 07:21:50
Post separation abuse is also involving others to harass the victim by proxy. It’s extremely common and must be recognised by all agencies tasked with supporting and safeguarding victims of domestic abuse!
- 2025-02-18 06:34:47
@canstatesecrets @scotwomensaid Firstly he served us with court paper from family court and as I was forced to self represent in that case I did a number of Subject Access Requests and discovered the data breaches there. No apologies and no redress for us either.
- 2025-02-17 21:48:55
@canstatesecrets @scotwomensaid Yeah- I tried that- well we changed our surname to my mum’s maiden name and went offline etc we did everything right. Unfortunately the agencies that were supposed to help us betrayed us. The name change was recommended by the police.
- 2025-02-17 09:43:08

Police Scotland need to investigate this man. All his devices need to be seized and forensically examined. In fact any unduly lenient sentencing for sexual offences should trigger investigation.
- 2025-02-16 13:28:53
@Wommando Not shocking considering what went on involving members of the judiciary. If you haven’t already please read @AdvocateHalley s book regarding what happens at the mere suggestion of further investigation into those involved. https://t.co/HrYyS1CWih

@wundt_vil I second this, I think he’s rather brilliant tbh
- 2025-02-15 11:54:15
@ellieokwilson It’s not okay. They’re very good at sound bites to make themselves look good to media but it’s horrific how we’re treated. My ex took a plea deal and I wasn’t told until I was appealing his sentence as unduly lenient. That was in 2014.
- 2025-02-15 11:39:06
@ellieokwilson I’m so pleased to hear his parole was rejected but I’m furious at how badly you’ve been treated. How is it victim centred to not have you informed every step of the way?
- 2025-02-15 08:18:03
@Katejsm1 @PamGosalMSP He’s not “post op” he’s not had any treatment as he and his wife are trying for a baby. In order for that to happen he requires the organ that expels his small gametes in order to fertilise her large gametes. This was discussed in the tribunal. Stop spouting nonsense!

- 2025-02-14 06:47:47
Same. I just don’t think this bill has enough safeguards to protect the vulnerable from perpetrators. I also think that people who aren’t terminally ill such as the disabled or mentally ill will be under huge pressure to “stop being a burden” - which is honestly horrifying.

@spycrowsoft @nhsfife @SCTScourtstribs I’ve read all thank you. And I stand by the point that the Law society of Scotland has set out standards of conduct which they expect (and so should the public expect) Solicitors and Advocates to follow and adhere to.
- 2025-02-06 09:15:55
@spycrowsoft @glynbmil @nhsfife @SCTScourtstribs That doesn’t negate the standards by which JR is required and expected to behave as set out by the Law society of Scotland though.
- 2025-02-06 09:11:22
@JoonesNorma @nhsfife @SCTScourtstribs Because now all a male doctor need do is declare he’s a woman and hey presto! No chaperone required because he’s to be treated as such in all respects. It beggars belief.
- 2025-02-06 09:01:19
@spycrowsoft @nhsfife @SCTScourtstribs This isn’t a criminal case it’s an employment tribunal. JR’s line of questioning is not only abhorrent but actually goes against the standards of conduct set out by the Law Society of Scotland.

- 2025-02-06 08:40:49
If a victim goes to an @nhsfife hospital for treatment for injuries will she be met with this misogynistic attitude? What about a rape victim? because you also appear to be unable to grasp the concept of consent here. No means no and a woman’s boundaries matter!

@laurarichards99 @dasgsurvivors @ZDronfield @AlexDaviesJones @jessphillips @DrJessTaylor @GeorgiaDA2018 @baronessnewlove A favoured sentence in our area is a “punny” - asking perpetrators to write an essay about domestic abuse. It’s neither protection for the victim nor deterrent to the perpetrators.

@laurarichards99 @dasgsurvivors @ZDronfield @AlexDaviesJones @jessphillips @DrJessTaylor @GeorgiaDA2018 @baronessnewlove They talk the talk but honestly I’ll believe it when I see it. Scotland has a brilliant Domestic Abuse Act which includes Coercive and controlling behaviour however on the ground the implementation with police and COPFS is practically non existent. Sentencing is too lenient.

@DangerousD1969 Unfortunately yes. He’s also in part responsible for this as he decided to unban all the arseholes when he took over. She’d been barred for years. \n\nhttps://t.co/bCX94zmjtK
- 2025-02-04 09:21:27
@DangerousD1969 I’m good. Thank you
- 2025-02-04 09:15:47
@RoeliendenOuden Exactly my point the system is broken when “at least they arrested and charged him fairly quickly and he was found guilty” is a good experience. It shouldn’t be like that.
- 2025-02-04 08:16:41
@joy33952920 Exactly- this misogynistic attitude permeates every department of the police and it endangers women and girls.
- 2025-02-04 08:09:32
Still I count this as a good experience with the justice system - at least he was found guilty. And he was apprehended quickly (once they bothered their arse to actually show up!)
- 2025-02-04 08:08:04
I had constructively dismissed from my job not long after the assault itself. They made work hell. My hours cut down to 4 per week then 2… \nTurned out the perpetrator was a friend of my new boss. The same man who’d stopped the lifts home we used to get under the previous owner!
- 2025-02-04 08:05:51
The sheriff was actually brilliant. He was found guilty. He got a community pay back order and two years on the sex offenders register.
- 2025-02-04 08:03:48
Third time lucky- court went ahead we found that police had not been accurate in recording the statements of myself and the four witnesses. What are the odds? His defence tried to decimate me. I stood and said that the fact I had two glasses of wine didn’t mean I was ‘up for it’
- 2025-02-04 08:00:39
He didn’t turn up to court twice.
- 2025-02-04 08:00:16
I felt completely humiliated. They didn’t seem to be taking it seriously and when I raised about me trying to flag down a police car they said “we’re not a taxi service for drunk women”. However by 9pm they were back round with mugshots and arrested & charged the guy that night.
- 2025-02-04 07:57:50
I contacted the police - this was around 2am. It was 4.30pm before officers bothered to arrive. When they did it was two male officers. I’d been told not to shower- they made me strip in front of them in my living room and they put my clothes in brown paper bags.
- 2025-02-04 07:55:20
Fortunately when I’d been walking up the road I’d managed to post that I was being followed and was scared. A friend happened to be coming home from the train station when he chased the guy off and got me home safely. He encouraged me to contact the police.
- 2025-02-04 07:53:21
He then grabbed me and pushed me back against the wall and exposed his penis and tried to pull at my clothes. I kept shouting “stop it” “let me go” - he was trying to rape me. I was terrified
- 2025-02-04 07:51:30
I went into a housing estate near to my home as I didn’t want him knowing where I lived. I was getting really scared by this point. He pushed me against a wall and tried to kiss me. I broke free and tried to wave down a passing police car. It didn’t stop.
- 2025-02-04 07:47:36
I then went to leave and he attempted to come with me. I said “I don’t know where you think you’re going but I’m going home -alone!” - he continued to follow me, harassing me. I tried to slow up so he’d go ahead, I tried zig zagging across the roads to try and lose him.
- 2025-02-04 07:44:29
In July 2014 I was followed home from work by a customer. I’d worked a shift then gone next door to another bar for a glass of wine. I ended up having two. He had followed me in there and was pestering me. He tried to kiss me and I played it off and dismissed it. -1
- 2025-02-04 07:37:20
The worst part of this is it doesn’t shock me one bit! Having interacted with the police as a victim of sexual violence and as a support worker we’ve encountered most of this.
- 2025-02-02 10:04:46
@mcca101 @dave24144975 What so she can get £6.23 a week woo hoo! FYI the CSA hasn’t existed since 2015/16. It’s the CMS now and they’re worse than useless. Fathers pay a pittance that wouldn’t buy a pair of shoes for the kids never mind anything else.
- 2025-02-02 09:57:35
@ask_aubry She’s needs to take the kids to her sisters and never go back. And get a good lawyer! This is abusive behaviour on his part.
- 2025-02-02 09:50:20
@murdo_fraser What? Domestic abuse incidents reported every 30 seconds, 4 per day on pregnant women, a domestic abuse act that has not been properly implemented by police or the judiciary, failing support services- but yeah sure- let’s put cats on a lead. Their priorities are all skewed!
- 2025-01-29 08:30:38
When? Because that same old speech I could recite backwards and forwards in my sleep I’ve heard it so many times in the last three decades! So when exactly will lessons be learned by police?
- 2025-01-29 08:29:13
she’s reported him, police fobbed her off, she is killed by him and police stand about like lemmings going “there’s no risk to the wider public/ we’re not looking for anyone else in relation to this incident/ we’re sorry blah blah and lessons will be learned”
- 2025-01-29 08:28:53
2-3 women per week are killed by a current or former partner in the UK ! And the case always plays out the same:
- 2025-01-29 08:24:20
If we know the data and the signs we can save lives.\n\nInstead of the current police constantly trotting out that “we’re sorry lessons will be learned” speech. https://t.co/JWfAS9I95h
- 2025-01-29 08:22:54
It’s important that this information is available, shared and known. \n\nIn Scotland alone - there are 4 reported incidents of domestic abuse on pregnant women a day! Bare in mind that domestic abuse is under reported by 30-40%.
- 2025-01-29 08:22:27
I don’t just want to raise awareness about pregnancy loss caused by domestic abuse but I want to make the public aware that pregnancy can trigger domestic abuse (around 30% of DV begins in pregnancy) or escalate existing abuse.
- 2025-01-29 08:21:48
Domestic abuse & Pregnancy 🧵Homicide mortality during pregnancy and within the first 42 days from the end of pregnancy exceeded all the leading causes of maternal mortality, including hypertensive disorders like pre-eclampsia, hemorrhage, and infection, by more than double!
- 2025-01-28 12:09:43
@theceltsarehere @AdvocateHalley @brucelharper Nah they’ve been covering that up for decades! I whistle blew about Sheriff Lothian (Andrew Lothian) and his pals decades ago - they ignored me. They ignored his wife and kids. They ignored the victims. They targeted folk like John and I and many others. They don’t want the truth
- 2025-01-26 19:03:58
@WingsScotland I seen the poster for this headline when I was on my way to church- I stopped and shook my head - some folk never learn eh!

@murdo_fraser Elective cosmetic surgery should not be paid for by the NHS. And it definitely shouldn’t happen for convicted murderers! How many of us are or know someone who’s been waiting years for a medically necessary procedure? Or who’ve been denied a procedure. This is a disgrace.

@laurarichards99 @jessphillips @YvetteCooperMP People still don’t understand coercive control. They think you have free will and could choose not to. They don’t understand the terror and the hopelessness, especially when you’ve reported and nothing is done. They believe myths and tropes around ‘mental health issues’ too.
- 2025-01-14 10:55:14
@severnaya66 @DalgetySusan And corrupt judiciary. COPFS is rife with corruption, cronyism and coverups particularly around the trafficking and abuse of children. A lot of solicitors, QCs (as they were) and Sheriffs were/are involved. And the police claim they don’t have the authority to investigate them.

@BuzzWellington I’ve brought this point up before. The safeguards of a woman being asked on her own if she’s being pressured by anyone or experiencing domestic abuse are there for a reason- and half the time aren’t followed. Forced abortion is actually the scenario I come across most often.

@SarahTaylo89428 @CommissionerDA I was specifically told in proceedings in 2002 and again in 2018 “oh don’t mention that, it gets murky and the sheriff doesn’t like it” in relation to disclosing my ex partners abuse of me.

@emmakennytv Every Judge or Sheriff who lets one of these monsters walk should be named and shamed and investigated. I believe there’s only one reason they’d show that level of sympathy to these offenders! Looking after their own… https://t.co/hL2EMmSVJV

Puts me in mind of when Fiona Tait “forgot” to sign a court order and social work told him our new address! The world over services that are meant to protect survivors do the very opposite. \nAnd we’re fed up hearing “lessons will be learned” because they never are.

@AdvocateHalley @KalamityKill @Wommando I pray for this. Many of the same players who tried to destroy you have also come after me repeatedly for raising the same issues- when I started I was just an office junior then receptionist/ legal secretary. The lengths they’ll go to protect the perpetrators is jaw dropping!

@KalamityKill @Wommando I’ll hazard a guess that Edinburgh wasn’t the only court in the country with sheriffs, QCs, clerks etc involved in horrific child abuse. They sympathise because they themselves need investigating and locking up! https://t.co/1J2V1svgUw

@MrMalky @whittaker616 @WingsScotland @scottishprisons @EdelmanPR That’s the words used “pen pals” - it seemed a very odd flex considering she knew she was talking to a rape and domestic abuse survivor. How is saying you’re pen pals with a rapist anything other than an utter disgrace?

And I’m no expert but I’m fairly certain that perverting the course of justice is a pretty serious thing and that being a Fiscal means it’s more serious because you’ve been trusted to uphold justice. \nPolice tell me they’ve no power to investigate the Procurator Fiscal.

@RynnBrooke I know right! She actually tried to pressure police into not charging them with the harassment, stalking and malicious communication. I’m pretty sure there’s some rules about that sort of behaviour… you know perverting the course of justice…

Maybe someone can explain this to me like I’m a two year old because I don’t understand the difference- so when I get death threat, rape threats and extortion threats online (mainly from my ex and his minions) the police can’t do anything apparently because they can’t trace 1/2

@sabele26 It’s our society: Mens feelings appear to trump women being able to speak about the horrific abuse inflicted on them - I mean god forbid his tiny fragile little ego is bruised by her speaking about the injuries and injustice.

@JaneWardenGray @BTP They tell the media how seriously they prioritise violence against women and girls but yet in reality time and time again they gaslight us, minimise what happened and lie to us - they just want us to go away and shut up. They couldn’t care any less!

@eccentricspirit @ivyrosefem I know a lot of good men but I also know a few I’d put on that list! It’s those violent, entitled and predatory ones that do a heck of a lot of repeat offending because their behaviour isn’t addressed or adequately punished.

@MsChopsy So as a former chef you’d say I couldn’t prepare a meal from scratch for my family because of violent men? A car was used to hurt me I’m not calling for cars to be banned because I recognise that’s not the issue. Violent men will use anything- including their fists.
- 2024-07-12 10:12:09
@eccentricspirit @ivyrosefem I don’t mean discuss him obviously- I mean let’s talk about misogyny, toxic male entitlement that leads to 2-3 women per week on average being killed by a current of ex partner in the UK. The fact that women’s lives don’t seem to matter as much as men’s feelings.

The solution is a return to in person consultations prior to giving any drugs. Posted drugs increase the risk to women’s health and safety and increases the likelihood of forced termination. I’ve lost count of the amount of women who’ve told me their perpetrator got drugs online
- 2024-06-15 07:26:36
@Nettleshippy Reproductive rights are one thing but we must not make it easier for perpetrators. Forced termination is already far too prevalent (figures from my 2018 small sample study of 40 female survivors of domestic abuse) https://t.co/tz77t2fPGz
- 2024-06-14 23:37:19
@jadewelshy Be shocked at nothing- I’ve had social workers make up 31 lies in a report (only 27 of which I could evidence as lies) I’ve had headteachers making up the most insane stuff about me too. Untrained professionals are dangerous to survivors of abuse.

@petetaylor97 What angered me most was the fiscal had an evidenced 9 year abuse timeline showing the escalation. That sentence gave us zero protection in fact he was back at stalking me by the 21st of February having been sentenced on the 14th! And he hasn’t stopped yet. He also breached bail.
- 2024-06-14 10:06:53
@petetaylor97 He wasn’t even fined it was a compensation order. So the sheriff thought my unborn baby’s life and the injuries I suffered (which still affect me over a decade on) were worth only £300! \nThe justice system is a mess, it’s completely corrupt top to bottom.

- 2024-06-13 21:28:44
It is likely that police Scotland won’t do much even if reported, even if you’re lucky enough to get them to take it seriously COPFS won’t! Our justice system is failing victims and survivors of domestic abuse and it is a national scandal!
- 2024-06-13 21:26:59
The true number is likely much higher given that domestic abuse is under reported by around 30/40%. But 4 women per day in Scotland being abused in pregnancy is absolutely disgusting!
- 2024-06-13 21:25:08
I had previously done an FOI with police Scotland which revealed that between 2017- 2021 there were 7,310 reports of domestic abuse on pregnant women. I was one of them - losing my baby boy Brodie in June 2017.
- 2024-06-13 21:22:34

In 2022 I gave evidence to the committee with my mother by my side. I was very nervous but the committee were lovely and they listened and took on board what I was saying. I felt heard for the first time since it happened
- 2024-06-13 21:18:09
In 2021 I petitioned the Scottish government via the CPPPC to ask them to change the law to protect women and give access to justice that women are currently denied when they lose their baby in such circumstances.
- 2024-06-13 21:16:36
I’m not the sort of woman who can hear the harrowing stories of other women and do nothing- so I now support other women who’ve lost their babies through domestic abuse or forced termination. And I know our law is very sadly lacking in this area. So I decided to do something!
- 2024-06-13 21:14:36
My story is not unique- in fact it’s actually quite common for domestic abuse perpetrators to step up abuse post separation or during pregnancy. But honestly the agencies who proclaim to take domestic abuse seriously simply don’t!
- 2024-06-13 21:12:53
I really have had very little respite from the man’s insane behaviour over the last nearly two decades- he’s had a few fines that’s been it! Ridiculously lenient considering what the impact has been on my daughters and I! He’s been allowed to carry on abusing me for years!
- 2024-06-13 21:10:32
Why do I do what I do? \nIn 2013 my ex partner Stuart McKinnon Hunter deliberately drove his car at me dragging me along the road. I was 6 weeks pregnant and lost my baby as a result. His punishment was an order to pay me £300 for my loss! This left him free to carry on abusing me https://t.co/rNldzqFvus

@SODASam_ @ResoluteSupport It makes me wonder what they’re so afraid of? Why they’re so keen to shut those of us with lived experience down? They could learn so much from actually listening to survivors.

@HazelAppleyard_ I’ve spoken about this before- in particular to the press following the BBC documentary “should I tell you I’m trans” - in relationships trust and honesty are fundamental. If you start off by being dishonest and riding roughshod over someone’s consent that’s no relationship

Women are 70 times more likely to be killed in the weeks/months after leaving their abusive partner than at any other time during the relationship.\n\nThink about that next time you believe “why didn’t you just leave?” is a valid question.

@ripx4nutmeg WTAF? Get that teacher investigated- “age is just a number” and “age doesn’t matter” - hard drive check required! Age does matter that’s why we have an age of consent which actually I’m in favour of raising to 18.
- 2024-06-05 22:06:01
Far too lenient a sentence in my opinion! When police officers commit crimes they should get an additional tariff for abusing a position of trust! We’re supposed to be able to trust the police!\n\nhttps://t.co/7MytKSHTYf

@saralewis735 @TerfSchool Same - climbed trees, built dens, my brother and I were best pals, we loved playing with our Star Wars toys or playing Robin Hood (I’d throw a fit if the other boys said I had to be maid Marion- I wanted to be little John!) good times.

- 2024-06-04 08:47:43
@DeeAngelicOne @ellieokwilson It’s how he did it and personal comments made after his client was found guilty. If he’d done nothing wrong the SLCC wouldn’t have found in her favour. Why don’t you stop being an abuse apologist? It’s cringe mate!

@vazz66 I did report to police who said it was up to the council to deal with. Which I actually find ridiculous- it should not matter who her employer is. “Without fear or favour” is meant to be how they police.

@DaltonJone1 Absolutely.

@jemevans Yes. It was an RC primary school.
- 2024-06-01 13:50:14
@DaltonJone1 Exactly- she has targeted a further two families (that I’m aware of - there’s probably more) during the pandemic/lockdown. She’s dangerous and clearly unable to regulate her behaviours.
- 2024-06-01 13:07:32
@Dalismuse1984 Dealing with this while dealing with his post separation abuse and the harassment from his family and whoever the latest girlfriend was at that point was utterly exhausting. Trauma upon trauma

@mtrigby It was widely rumoured in the community why. But I won’t repeat it - let’s just say they were “close”

@rjdekanter @dshensmith @DrProudman Yeah - I mean I took my kids to church when they were little but made it clear they were under no obligation to believe. My youngest is atheist and that’s fine by me. We respect each other’s beliefs and opinions- she’s her own person.\nMy brother married a Catholic woman.
- 2024-06-01 11:38:51
@rjdekanter @dshensmith @DrProudman I’m Scottish Episcopal, I don’t think that classes as Protestant? My point was my Muslim father didn’t dictate what I or my wee brother could believe or not. This document creeps me out. Can’t be mandating what people are allowed to believe in.

@dshensmith @DrProudman My father is Muslim, My mother Christian, I‘ve never heard of such a thing, it’s surely not legal? Don’t the children have a right to choose what faith, if any? My parents told my brother and I to find our own path as regards faith. I became a Christian, my brother Catholic.

This Judge needs investigating!
- 2024-06-01 08:09:02
I’ll add that her employer (City of Edinburgh Council) blamed her behaviour on lack of knowledge and training in domestic abuse and promised to make such a priority with their staff going forward.
- 2024-06-01 07:49:58
@iseult It was terrifying dealing with her and him and his crazy family too. I’m just lucky that I have such a great family, my parents would challenge her like in one meeting she tried to say I was taking tramadol, and my dad asked her where her proof was because he knew I wasn’t.
- 2024-06-01 07:40:15
As I said I wasn’t the only target of this woman, she targeted a lot of families particularly where the parent was a single mother. It terrifies me that she’s still around children and still behaves as she did!
- 2024-06-01 07:38:32
My complaint was fully upheld- however she is still in her job and was even allowed to adopt a child! \nThis lunatic would have been our named person if that legislation had passed through- imagine someone that unhinged and predatory having that much power over a survivors life?
- 2024-06-01 07:36:14
Furthermore she made repeated false allegations (all proven to be fabricated) desperate to help her pal, my ex and abuser! https://t.co/I9NTDfbKcy
- 2024-06-01 07:31:47
As you can see above she told my ex we were in Perth! And did not follow the safeguarding protocols for a disclosure of abuse by a child!
- 2024-06-01 07:30:25
I had cause to complain about her when we fled because she didn’t stop even after we fled! My ex had my middle child illegally and was trying to use her to make me return to him, I had to basically kidnap her back because he ignored court orders to return her via my family. https://t.co/1CxyvI4uv5
- 2024-06-01 07:25:50
She was frequently seen in the community with my ex partner. And targeted other families where mum was single too. One of my friends to such a degree she fled to Wales to escape the persecution! Another fled to the highlands! Both were DV survivors too!
- 2024-06-01 07:23:34
She frequently made up things about me, my staff, my parents and my child minder to such a degree we queried her mental health and had to introduce a sign in book for drop off/pick up to combat the lies. She “lost” the book often so I started taking a picture with my phone too.
- 2024-06-01 07:20:42
My staff dubbed her “the hand that rocks the cradle” after one incident where my children reported that she’s said to them “would you like if I was your mummy” - which we all found very disturbing!
- 2024-06-01 07:19:42
This caused them a great deal of distress. Especially in the run up to the 2013 case where she frequently told my child she was bad for getting her daddy into trouble.
- 2024-06-01 07:17:40
Katy Westacott was my children’s head teacher at their old primary school. She took an unhealthy interest in my children and would often remove them from class to interrogate them about my personal life and to try to tell them what a wonderful daddy our perpetrator was!

@RosieHeys I would say so.
- 2024-05-31 18:02:39
Most domestic abuse homicides involve stalking prior to the murder of the victim. \n\nYour officers pretending that “stalking isn’t a crime” is putting lives at risk! \n\nSort yourselves out!
- 2024-05-31 17:57:46
For example if A happens to be Bs ex partner from whom she is separated and there’s say a long history of domestic abuse A’s behaviour is placing B at much greater risk of homicide or serious harm.
- 2024-05-31 17:55:51
Stalking is a “course of conduct” crime. \n\nFor example A standing across from Bs home everyday staring over isn’t a crime in of itself however if the said conduct is causing A fear and alarm and is part of a wider pattern of behaviour then this would be a crime under section 39.
- 2024-05-31 17:53:48
3)This subsection applies where A engages in the course of conduct with the intention of causing B to suffer fear or alarm.
- 2024-05-31 17:53:28
1)A person (“A”) commits an offence, to be known as the offence of stalking, where A stalks another person (“B”). (c)A's course of conduct causes B to suffer fear or alarm.
- 2024-05-31 17:52:48
A lesson in law for @PSOSTayside and @PoliceScotland : Stalking is a crime under Scottish law and is an offence against the Criminal Justice and Licensing (Scotland) Act 2010 Section 39.\n\nTherefore it is a criminal and not civil matter.
- 2024-05-31 13:50:01
My injuries were life impacting (although thankfully not life threatening) and he caused the loss of my unborn baby. £300 compensation is a joke!
- 2024-05-31 13:44:34
He is convicted having plead guilty- although he pretends to every woman he meets and grooms that it didn’t happen so they come after me on his behalf! \n\nHis sentence was unduly lenient considering what he did! https://t.co/OCDSdqCaOl
- 2024-05-31 13:42:37
To be clear we were not friends on Facebook but he would message me via messenger. Also we did have mutual friends so some posts were visible to him and he’d make twisted comments under them, or his family would.
- 2024-05-31 13:40:56
My ex partner is a liar and here’s my proof. \nIn 2018 he traced us and brought family court proceedings to try and take my children to punish me for daring to attempt to escape his post separation abuse having fled via womens aid in 2017. Here is his “version” v the truth https://t.co/MOAcC4SYr4

@sacha_coward Are you saying that you don’t know the difference between a transsexual and a bloke pretending to be so? You know like Adam Graham the convicted rapist? That sounds awfully transphobic to me.
- 2024-05-31 07:08:22
It is glaringly obvious to me that @PoliceScotland are wilfully ignorant of the law in regards to Domestic Abuse and Stalking. They do not take either seriously and are straight up lying to the public, press and government when they say otherwise. It is just lip service!
- 2024-05-31 06:50:36
@paladinservice @dashchecklist @thecrimeanalyst Frankly I’m fed up being told that stalking isn’t a crime because it bloody well is! Under the Criminal Justice & Licensing (Scotland) Act 2010- section 39. It’s not a civil matter and this piece of excrement is messing with every single area of my life!
- 2024-05-31 06:47:07
I am of course being sarcastic in the last line there! @paladinservice @dashchecklist @thecrimeanalyst - what should they be doing about a man who’s been stalking me for over a decade post separation? Where even moving and changing my surname was no protection?

@BrodiesTrust In Scotland 4 pregnant women a day are reported to be abused (FOI figures from Police Scotland) the figures are likely much higher. For some this abuse will end in stillbirth, miscarriage or forced termination. Scotlands leading cause of maternal death is domestic abuse.

And I set up my own support group for women who’ve experienced domestic abuse related pregnancy loss or forced termination: @BrodiesTrust. Heartbreaking stories have been shared and we have been each other’s support but I needed to do something about the gaps in the law.
- 2024-05-30 18:41:33
When I lost my son Brodie in 2017 (still being dealt with by the authorities 7 years on! ) I was completely broken. I needed support and couldn’t find any specific to domestic abuse pregnancy loss. I did a small sample study of 40 female survivors of domestic abuse in 2018: https://t.co/NVGm9DGpgM
- 2024-05-30 18:38:53
He was free to continue harassing and stalking me and messing with my life any way he could. I appealed his sentence as unduly lenient- it was then that I learned that he’d taken a plea deal to a much lesser crime! Nobody told me at court on the day!
- 2024-05-30 18:36:53
He knew I was pregnant and had spent the previous week trying to coerce me into an abortion. His sentence was an order to pay me £300 compensation “for my loss” which was absolutely outrageous and didn’t give us any protection from him.
- 2024-05-30 18:34:39
I have lost three babies within the context of domestic abuse between 2009-2017 - including forced termination. In 2013 my ex partner hit me with his car deliberately because I’d ended our relationship. I was 6wks pregnant and I miscarried less than 48 hours later. https://t.co/U1sKII0BZq

- 2024-05-30 09:33:23
@WrathQueenof @90stomboy That must’ve been terrifying- after spending my entire pregnancy trying to spread the lie that our 2nd child was pillow up my jumper, having me physically attacked by his mother when I was 9wks gone, he turned up to hospital ranting at me and demanding she be handed to him.
- 2024-05-30 08:33:28
@90stomboy He even tried to get residency and PRR for my youngest child- she isn’t even his! These types of men will stop at nothing, there’s nothing too low for them.
- 2024-05-30 08:31:54
@90stomboy I actually advise (because of the 4/5/06 law) that you don’t put the perpetrator on the BC if you’re having a child. I didn’t put him on the BC for our daughters and it been our only saving grace tbh- the fact he had no PRR and courts did listen to my concerns. https://t.co/6Xe0Tcw8us

How he’s repeatedly getting away with what is a glaringly obvious pattern of behaviour is beyond me ! It is stalking, harassment and it is domestic abuse!
- 2024-05-30 07:25:49
Another thing he’s very fond of is the midnight or early hours “welfare check” which he usually likes to coincide with family events- you know just so he can ruin them while keeping his hands clean!
- 2024-05-30 07:24:09
He is particularly fond of grooming gullible women into believing his ‘poor me’ act and having them come for me on his behalf either physically or online while he plays innocent- we know the tactics and are wise to him!
- 2024-05-30 07:22:27
He has stalked me online for over a decade sending me some pretty alarming shit to cause me fear and alarm.
- 2024-05-30 07:21:18
He has dragged us through family court 8 times in 10 years- always fully funded by legal aid whereas I would have to pay thousands in legal fees to protect my girls. This would cause financial hardship to us. He was particularly fond of ensuring dates ruined family events!
- 2024-05-30 07:19:08
This has included repeated false allegations to police and social work in one instance in 2016 resulting in us having to have forensic medicals and hair strand drug tests. This exonerated me but he faced no consequences for making a malicious report!
- 2024-05-30 07:16:55
We don’t talk enough about post separation abuse and how perpetrators use social work, police and family courts to further abuse their victims once they’ve left! We are in our 11th year of post separation abuse perpetrated by my ex. Meaning he’s been abusing me for 18 years!!
- 2024-05-30 06:50:47
I’m in tears thinking about this poor girl. We’ve known porn is an issue for years why isn’t anything being done about it? Protect our children!

@Belstaffie My daughters were sent hardcore porn by lads in their school, they were also being stalked by one of them. I asked the question what the hell are boys of 14/15 doing having access to that kind of content?! It’s warping their brains and endangering our girls.

We see this all too often where victims are blamed for the abuse that they endured and the perpetrator becomes this “innocent bystander” devoid of any responsibility for his actions! \nHold perpetrators to account and protect the victims it’s not rocket science!

@RynnBrooke It’s funny that the same newspaper group did an article on my debate which was in the actual paper but they never put online (meaning I couldn’t share it) It’s strange. I just won’t work with any of their titles again or any of their journalists.
- 2024-05-26 08:55:56
I’m pretty annoyed right now! I was contacted by a journalist from the Sunday Mail, I gave up my time for free to do an interview and then time with a photographer!

Any man convicted of domestic abuse should have his PRR terminated and be barred from taking his victim to Family Court! Abusive men are not safe fathers!This myth that an abuser can be a safe parent puts women and children at risk!
- 2024-05-23 14:50:08
@90stomboy He spent the entire pregnancy smearing me claiming I was faking it and she was a pillow up my jumper, got his mum and sister to attack me, when she was born rocked up at the hospital to demand her when she was barely a day old! Then tried to deny she was was his child
- 2024-05-23 14:46:16
@90stomboy I deliberately didn’t put my ex on our second daughters BC because of that. Our other daughter was born before 4/5/06 so he didn’t have rights over her either. In all honesty it’s the one thing that saved us over the years.
- 2024-05-23 14:15:58
@90stomboy I know- it happens all too often because poorly trained or untrained professionals believe myths and tropes rather than facts. Women and children die because of this incompetence. Abuse perpetrators are never safe fathers.

@SarahTaylo89428 Definitely- it’s the most misunderstood and weaponised part of the pattern of domestic abuse in my experience. Most professionals can’t even get their head around it - it’s slowly changing I’ve encountered a head fiscal and two police officers recently who understood it.

Still can’t get my head around someone thinking “you know what Perth needs, a massive Trojan unicorn with a rainbow horn and a gimp mask which plays audio of kids talking about top surgeries like they’re a trip to the shows at Burntisland.

@bentcoppper I’m not 100% sure but I think so - it’s free to get in and see around most of the museum, but you pay £10 to see the unicorn exhibit
- 2024-05-18 07:47:35
@seedsgirl @PerthMuseumUK I wondered that too. I mean a unicorn exhibit is great as a concept as it’s our national animal. But there’s surely far more educational, factual, historical information and unicorn pieces could have gone into the museum? We did really enjoy the first floor of the exhibit.

@ManKindInit @BBCNews @NSPCC @PeterWanless @ChildrensComm I agree here. These boys were victims and the BBC headline minimises what happened to them. It’s not okay. They do this with female victims too. I think it’s a huge problem across the media, minimising the abuse of children.

Some professionals really have no clue as to how far perpetrators do go in the weaponisation of the law in order to still maintain control over their victims. It is terrifying what they can actually do and yet some professionals refuse to see the pattern of behaviour.
- 2024-05-16 09:57:18
Yesterday in conversation with the Head Fiscal for our region he stated that he sees this as abuse towards me and my daughters too, it’s coercive, the weaponisation of repeated litigation.\nI told him it was heartening to actually hear a professional state that.

I have to say this, although family court was incredibly traumatic, abusive, and very expensive for me (my ex was fully funded by legal aid) not once was he ever awarded parental rights (8 attempts in 10 years) and in the end: No contact for him, even indirectly. https://t.co/MAoEZWOMkq

What I’ve learned through personal experience since then is that in fact there’s a lot of tolerance, even excuses, blind eyes turned and deliberate ignorance regarding male violence against women and girls. I’ll be 46 years old in 9 days! \n32 years and nothing has really changed!
- 2024-05-08 11:13:45
I was 14 years old. I hadn’t even experienced domestic abuse nor did I even understand what it was. I was a child. My youngest daughter isn’t much older than I was then

In the UK Domestic Abuse has over taken pre-eclampsia as the leading cause of maternal death. That is an absolute disgrace!
- 2024-05-07 10:13:28
In Scotland it is reported that 4 pregnant women a day experience domestic abuse. For some that will end in miscarriage, stillbirth or forced termination. For others - placental abrubtion, pre term delivery, and other pregnancy complications can arise as a result of abuse.
- 2024-05-07 10:11:08
I speak out about what happened to me for one reason: to shed light on a very taboo subject and area of domestic violence that is not talked about nearly enough considering it’s prevalence. \nWhat happened to me is not unique nor an isolated case.

Mr Choudhury raises the extremely important point that many women do not report domestic abuse because of fear of social services labelling them as a bad mother or removing their children. I know that social workers can often cause more harm and trauma to survivor families.

Just to be clear, this is the proposed amendment to the Domestic Abuse (Scotland) Act 2018, drafted by Dr Mary Neal. It spells out in no uncertain terms what I want. A clear definition of the crime with no wiggle room for it to be misused against victims. https://t.co/DipVls8Npx

@misogynyisdead @PSOSTayside It’s completely ridiculous. I can’t stomach seeing their posts about how seriously they take stalking and domestic abuse- clearly in truth they could not care less!

@ArcherStormFox @AWumman @PSOSTayside They’ve previously advised me to stop my campaign as it “upsets him”! \n\nTo which I say “tough! I’m not giving up until the law changes”

@annieoneandonly @PSOSTayside Lawyers are generally reluctant to go up against police or social workers due to the targeted harassment that will then arise from them.
- 2024-05-06 06:42:38
@PoliceScotland You cannot claim he’s not a risk while at the same time we’ve been assessed as being at “significant risk of serious harm” by him and had a community alarm put in our home just the other week! Make it make sense.
- 2024-05-06 06:39:32
@PoliceScotland You claim to the press and the public that you take domestic abuse seriously- not in my experience or that of many other women in Scotland! So please stop lying and fobbing women off and letting perpetrators escalate!
- 2024-05-06 06:37:47
They sent me home with my file! The specialist officers did not attend. As yet I’ve still to have a statement taken or have officers look at the evidence! @PoliceScotland this simply isn’t good enough!

I then attended Perth police station in person with the screenshots printed out and a written statement along with the 18 year pattern of behaviour timeline. I spoke with officers however they didn’t take a statement just booked for specialist officers to attend my home.

@danhowe77s @SarahTaylo89428 What you’re describing is domestic abuse in itself. It is not PAS. PAS does not exist. There is no “syndrome” that women suddenly are afflicted by at the point of separation. You do know what Dr Gardner was? Right? Are you saying you hold to all his teachings? If so 🚩🚩
- 2024-05-05 07:01:45
@SarahTaylo89428 I hate seeing that junk pseudoscience promoted in any way. It’s a bunch of huey made up by a man of dubious character. His work was never peer reviewed nor does it have any basis in fact. Justifiable estrangement from a perpetrator is not alienation.

- 2024-05-03 05:45:10
All of this places victims/survivors at serious risk of harm or homicide at the hands of their perpetrator and even at risk of suicide! \n\nPost Separation Abuse must be taken seriously and the significant impact it has recognised.
- 2024-05-03 05:41:33
We have seen cases where perpetrators have been housed near to their victims who have fled! Family Court can be used as a way to still force victims to engage with and be controlled by their perpetrator! Stalking is not taken seriously by Police Scotland at all!
- 2024-05-03 05:39:25
from him, his family and his associates was astonishing and at times quite unbearable! Unfortunately a lot of professionals are absolutely clueless regarding Post Separation Abuse which can then further traumatise victims and also place them in significantly harmful situations
- 2024-05-03 05:36:54
He has continued to stalk, harass and threaten me - engaging in Post Separation Abuse for 11 years now with no end in sight! However I have actually been dealing with his behaviour pattern for 18 years! Every time I’d try to end things and try to leave the onslaught of harassment
- 2024-05-03 05:33:57
I permanently ended the relationship with my ex partner in 2013. He screamed at me that I didn’t get to decide when it was over. He drove his car at me dragging me along the road and causing me to miscarry. But that wasn’t the end to his behaviours either
- 2024-05-03 05:31:55
One of the biggest myths around Domestic Abuse is that the abuse ends when the relationship does. This is not the case. The most dangerous time for a woman is when she leaves or ends the relationship.

You have to be a special kind of evil to forcefully insert yourself into the life of a victim of domestic abuse fleeing her perpetrator and start a campaign of targeted harassment against her and her children. To weaponise the abuse, to smear her with lies, terrorise her children

On the day at court he pled guilty at the last gasp, I was not told until I was appealing his sentence as “unduly lenient” that he had in fact taken a plea deal to a lesser charge of reckless and culpable conduct (domestic abuse). His sentence was an order to pay me £300.
- 2024-04-28 21:57:06
He dragged things out for months, in which time he breached his bail multiple times trying to coerce me into not testifying, he had multiple people threatening me on his behalf including threats to kidnap my children, put me in a ditch and stab me. It was terrifying.

As many of you are already aware- back in 2013 my ex partner deliberately hit me with his car, I was dragged 5/6ft along the road, gravel was embedded in my skin, I suffered cuts, abrasions, and bruising to my spine, hip and knees. I miscarried within 48 hours due to my injuries

@annieoneandonly @PoliceScotland I’m used to it by now but it is absolutely ridiculous. I’ve told them how we’ve stopped our in person meetings, I’m hyper-vigilant, I’m terrified about being in Edinburgh next week too. Hopefully he’s just a venting lunatic- but we just don’t know. He sounded awfully incelly.
- 2024-04-25 20:17:30
@annieoneandonly @PoliceScotland That’s exactly what I thought .
- 2024-04-25 19:25:36
Can anyone clarify this? It #stalkingawarenessweek and I’ve been expressly told by two police officers from @PoliceScotland that “it’s not stalking unless you expressly tell the individual in writing to leave you alone” - is that right? That’s not what the law states…
- 2024-04-25 17:29:51
What, and I cannot stress this enough, the actual f**k?!\nThere are not enough expletives in existence to express my disgust at this!
- 2024-04-25 08:58:21
@BrodiesTrust @PoliceScotland @COPFS I sincerely hope that our government listens, and that the proposed amendment is passed so that women who experience this devastating situation can finally have the access to justice they’re currently denied.
- 2024-04-25 08:55:11
@BrodiesTrust @PoliceScotland Perpetrators are often not being charged, women are being fobbed off by police, and @COPFS are badly failing women when a perpetrator is charged. \n\nOf that 7,310 reported incidents- only 6 were charged and made it to the court. \n\nSo 7,304 incidents were not prosecuted.
- 2024-04-25 08:52:16
@BrodiesTrust @PoliceScotland 4per day in the time frame between when I lost Brodie until now totals over 10,000! As we know domestic abuse is under reported by around 30-40% so the figures are likely much higher.
- 2024-04-25 08:50:19
@BrodiesTrust I did an FOI with @PoliceScotland which showed that in the requested time period 7,310 reported incidents of domestic abuse against pregnant women were reported. I was one of those women, losing my son Brodie on 27th June 2017. \n\nThis averages 4 women per day in Scotland! https://t.co/a5qrtBRS66
- 2024-04-25 08:44:39
@BrodiesTrust We feel strongly that within domestic abuse law is the best place for this - thus giving victims the access to justice currently denied whilst protecting reproductive autonomy for women. The wording, careful, so that it could not be weaponised against a woman or her doctors.
- 2024-04-25 08:42:33
@BrodiesTrust Later that year stakeholders gave evidence in a round table https://t.co/d5ryI3L83e Dr Mary Neal was asked if she would draft a proposed amendment: https://t.co/Ua5LFlNki6
- 2024-04-25 08:40:01
@BrodiesTrust In June 2022 I gave evidence to the committee https://t.co/wGvHFdeqCP where I suggested that a quicker simpler way to address this may be an amendment to the Domestic Abuse (Scotland) Act 2018
- 2024-04-25 08:36:48
I set up the support group @BrodiesTrust to support women who have experienced pregnancy loss through domestic abuse or forced termination. I still felt something needed to be done about the law. So in 2021 I petitioned the Citizen Participation and Public Petitions Committee
- 2024-04-25 08:33:16
Following this I did a small sample study of 40 female domestic abuse survivors in 2018. The results were shocking: https://t.co/4jIPQDdYpB
- 2024-04-25 08:31:51
Having personally experienced the devastating impact of pregnancy loss through domestic abuse and forced termination I was shocked by the lack of support and the lack of legal framework for prosecuting perpetrators. https://t.co/FxpzNlexKJ

It’s #StalkingAwarenessWeek2024 let’s not forget that @PoliceScotland officers routinely tell victims that “stalking isn’t a crime” and fob them off for months. Stalking victims can come to serious harm because stalking is not treated with the seriousness it warrants!
- 2024-04-22 19:03:28
Police Scotland pretending that they take stalking seriously as it’s #StalkingAwarenessWeek2024 however the reality is far from what they seek to present! Police Scotland do not take stalking seriously in the slightest!
- 2024-04-22 19:00:50
@PoliceScotland @ActionStalking If it is a priority then how come women are having to beg and plead and make conduct complaints in order to actually get an officer round to look at evidence? And how come call handlers fob you off with “stalking isn’t a crime” - more sound bites for press to mask the reality!

@DrJessTaylor I grew up around it because my father was a head chef, I went into the industry & knew I’d have to take it, it’s the heat & the stress. When I had my own place though it’s the one thing I didn’t want - and our kitchen ran much smoother for it! It’s just accepted but shouldn’t be

I’m pushing to change the law in Scotland to give these women access to justice that they’re currently denied. A simple amendment to the Domestic Abuse (Scotland) Act 2018 will achieve this without infringing on reproductive autonomy. https://t.co/ObTxnftwz5

@PoliceScotland @DalgetySusan @sianushka I can’t sit there knowing that the law is deficient in this area and knowing that things are not working as they showing the police and the judiciary.

In 2022 I did an FOI with @PoliceScotland, this showed that since I lost my son Brodie in 2017 - 2021 there were 7,310 recorded incidents of domestic abuse involving pregnant women. Over the 5 years that’s 4 per day! Just in Scotland!

I set up a support group for women like me who’ve suffered pregnancy loss through domestic abuse or forced termination and petitioned the Scottish government to change the law in this respect.
- 2024-04-18 09:28:48
He has continued to stalk and harass me since. I used to not name him and simply call him my ex - however he began threatening to sue me because I was speaking out and my solicitor told me as he was convicted it was perfectly legal for me to name him. So I stopped protecting him
- 2024-04-18 09:26:51
I miscarried within 48 hours. He was arrested and charged. Later at court he took a plea deal and pled guilty to reckless and culpable conduct and was sentenced to pay me £300 compensation “for my loss”.
- 2024-04-18 09:24:26
I was 6 weeks pregnant at the time. He knew this as he’d spent a week trying to coerce me into having an abortion (didn’t want his three affairs to find out!) I had ended our relationship and asked him to go. He roared at me that I didn’t get to decide when we were over.
- 2024-04-18 09:22:35
I have gained a lot of new followers over the last couple of days. I thought it was a good time to tell my story of why I do what I do.

So could your officers kindly stop telling women that stalking isn’t a crime- because it is and it’s been one for well over a decade! Stalkers escalate and stalkers can and do kill! \n\nI for one am simply fed up of hearing “we are sorry… lessons will be learned”\n\nWill they aye?
- 2024-04-17 09:31:29
Stalking behaviours can be identified by certain characteristics. A key question to ask is yourself when identifying this is are the actions of the perpetrator: \n \n•Fixated\n•Obsessive\n•Unwanted\n•Repeated?\n\nThe rule of F.O.U.R - it’s an easy one to remember!
- 2024-04-17 09:29:26
Accessing a phone to view personal information\nMaking unwanted calls, sending unwanted texts or messages\nSharing or threatening to share photos, videos or personal information\nImpersonating an online identity and attacking others\nUsing someone’s image online
- 2024-04-17 09:28:29
Cyber stalking can include: \nContacting someone through social media and messaging apps\nTracking social media accounts\nHacking into a computer, including installing tracking apps or devices\nTaking control of someone’s social media profiles
- 2024-04-17 09:27:04
Following someone or spying on them\nSharing intimate pictures of them without their consent, for example by text, on a website, or on a social media site\nPosting information publicly about someone, making public accusations or contacting someone’s employer\nMaking threats.
- 2024-04-17 09:26:09
Some examples of such behaviours include:\nSending unwanted letters or cards\nSending unwanted emails or text messages or posts on social media sites\nMaking unwanted phone calls\nDelivering unwanted gifts to a workplace or home\nWaiting outside someone’s home or workplace
- 2024-04-17 09:23:21
It is defined as “a 'course of conduct' crime, that is 2 or more incidents that make a person feel fear and alarm.” - the incidents do not necessarily require to be criminal but that as a course of conduct could/would cause fear and distress.
- 2024-04-17 09:21:38
Here is a lesson on Stalking and the law in Scotland for @PoliceScotland officers \n\nStalking is a criminal offence under The Criminal Justice and Licensing (Scotland) Act 2010, section 39.
- 2024-04-17 08:57:54
@ArchLuminous It reads like that. However the story he gave us is that he is the surviving twin of a DV induced loss, he said his twin sister had been stillborn. Then went on to threaten me with her. I don’t believe him.
- 2024-04-17 07:53:23
The irony of @PoliceScotland ignoring stalking the week before #NationalStalkingAwarenessWeek2024 Oh I will be reminding them on every single virtue signalling post they make ! \nStalking is a crime, a serious one!
- 2024-04-17 06:19:55
@VeniVidiVicki We’re a small support group with limited funds, so we only help and support women who’ve been affected by pregnancy loss caused by domestic abuse or forced termination. He seemed to think he was more entitled to help. And that our disengagement was “spurning” and “rejecting”
- 2024-04-17 06:16:05
@VeniVidiVicki He’s a complete stranger. Contacted us saying he was the survivor twin of a dv loss. He came over quite creepy, inconsistent and entitled. We decided in September there’d be no further contact. Then this year he’s started making threats. It’s quite unsettling
- 2024-04-17 06:11:11
@rosykaren @sprolliehouse Due to the inconsistency we felt he’d made it up to try to infiltrate the group. He wanted to come to meet up proclaiming that he could help the women there. I was clear we’re women only.
- 2024-04-17 06:08:29
@rosykaren @sprolliehouse No. He stated in other messages that he was the survivor twin of a dv loss and that she’d been stillborn. But he then in the final message on Facebook mentions her as if she’s not dead. It’s inconsistent like a lot of the things he said in the messages he sent.
- 2024-04-17 06:04:19
@nicj_jones Police Scotland state : “Stalking is not a crime it is a civil matter” - when you argue with them and quote the law (the criminal justice and licensing (Scotland) act 2010, section 39) they just laugh. Those forms are a waste of time too. Filled them out before because of my ex.

Also for the love of god will you please train your officers in the Criminal Justice and Licensing (Scotland) Act 2010 section 39! Stalking is actually a criminal offence and your officers still seem woefully ignorant of this fact 14 years since the act came into force!

@firstfinequine Thank you.

@ambeanmhor “What’s the problem?” “What do you expect us to do” “what’s an incel” \n“We’ll get someone to phone you in the week” - should have said he’d misgendered me and I was suffering hurty feelz!
- 2024-04-16 18:42:05
Have reported these messages that I found tonight- to be asked what’s the issue, what I expect them to do and this was the one that gets the prize “what’s an incel” - Jesus wept! Police Scotland are an absolute joke!

@EmJaRo2 Basically he contacted our page, I dealt with his inquiry, I got an uneasy feeling, we both decided when he asked for my number that we’d have no further engagement with him. Then a few months later he demanded to know why I spurned him ect. I found the twitter messages tonight.
- 2024-04-16 18:33:01
@SC0TY Definitely!
- 2024-04-16 18:13:35
@weirdal77 Hopefully but these are the types that go on shooting and stabbing sprees so I want the police to at least have him on their radar.
- 2024-04-16 18:12:32
@eileandubh_fran @McKittenCat It does actually read that way. But he claimed to be the survivor twin of a dv induced loss. But then threatened me with his twin sister in a later message.
- 2024-04-16 18:07:09
@weirdal77 I did. They logged it but didn’t come out to see the screenshots. He claimed to be the survivor twin of a dv induced loss. \nWe have limited funds. We’re small. We’re very clear that we are a support group for women who’ve experienced DV pregnancy loss or forced termination.
- 2024-04-16 17:53:26
@MadPercy2 That was my gut instinct when he was asking for my phone number. We then both decided no further interaction as being male he didn’t fit the criteria for our support group. Obviously my gut was right.
- 2024-04-16 17:48:07
And he left this delight too the Brodies page. https://t.co/zLwiUOnPGC

- 2024-04-16 17:41:44
Aaannd my gut instinct was correct again! Sheesh! \n\nAnd what part of our “for women who have experienced pregnancy loss through domestic abuse or forced termination” does this dude believe he fits into? https://t.co/eyLSmXlo83

Domestic Abuse perpetrators will always deny their behaviour or down play it. They will always make out that convictions were a miscarriage of justice, or that she lied about him, or that it didn’t happen. That’s just straight out of the abuser playbook
- 2024-04-16 12:18:52
Domestic Abuse Perpetrators will always find gullible women who they can groom to go to bat for them. Who they can use to act the victim to. Who they can convince to go after the victim on their behalf. It’s a tale as old as time….

Protecting women from abuse is a cartel apparently.\n\nTaking a n educated guess your ex is justifiably estranged and protecting your kids from you. You’ve probably never paid child support and are a massive misogynist!

@thecrimeanalyst He’s one of the F4J delusionists you won’t get any sense out of him. You need to sound out the big words and get the crayons out. Supervision recommended incase he eats them or shoves one up his nose.
- 2024-04-16 08:35:09
@ScotTories @murdo_fraser Since the act came into force. Police Scotland are telling domestic abuse victims that they’re “not a priority” and that “arguments between ex’s aren’t criminal” and “stalking isn’t a criminal offence” This hate crime act will cost lives. Women’s lives.
- 2024-04-16 08:31:31
I know it’s hard but you need to let go of her, that past version of you, stop chasing her. Embrace yourself as you are now, allow her to come to life. Stronger, Braver, Wiser. You’re never as broken as they want you to believe you are. You didn’t know then what you do now. https://t.co/E9SVxefSJ6

Despite the fact he’d deliberately lied, admitted it to sw when our drugs tests came back negative, wasted police time and resources, he faced no consequences because they couldn’t prove malice 🤯\nThe man is nothing but malice!
- 2024-04-14 10:28:39
Oh and I did forget to add in the big stunt he pulled with his deviant cousin (also his nephew) Jordan and his pal in 2016 because I was refusing to give him money from my business. That resulted in us all having forensic medicals and drugs tests all of which exonerated me.

Almost forgot that his big sister likes pretending to be me online. Numerous fake accounts over the years and hacking into an old Facebook account. Last I’m aware of was her setting up a fake twitter of me in 2018 during family court proceedings.
- 2024-04-14 02:46:20
And this tonight … it’s just a long pattern of his poor me act and manipulation of others. He is the one at the heart of it all! It won’t stop me speaking the truth and it won’t change the reality of who he is and what he is! And it certainly won’t stop my campaign!
- 2024-04-14 02:43:55
Constantly for years after he was convicted (he pled guilty!) we had threats from women he was involved with or his mums daft pals. Last year this Michelle and her daughter were calling my wee one and threatening us my friends and I were panicking…but they didn’t come through.
- 2024-04-14 02:42:04
Then there was Leanne, who posted up my address just before court and invited people to kick my c**t in and said I was going to be found dead in a ditch if I testified. That didn’t work out to well for her either!
- 2024-04-14 02:38:29
Two of his mum’s friends tried to fit me up with allegations so I’d be an “unreliable witness” for court- that backfired spectacularly on them. I could barely walk without a stick and was in constant pain… grieving my loss and still having to deal with his shit!
- 2024-04-14 02:35:12
In 2013 following my miscarriage I had threats and abuse from his family, Penny (we used to call her pennywise because she’s such a clown) The heighs ahain ( which resulted in Sarah Heigh being charged with malicious communication for posting crap about my miscarriage on Facebook
- 2024-04-14 02:32:56
Then there was the abuse and threats I got from his mate Bryan and his girlfriend who I’d later find out Hunter was sleeping with both the Aunt and the mother of ( Fiona and Penny) Fiona never ever gave me any abuse quite the opposite actually.
- 2024-04-14 02:30:10
Then the constant abuse from his mother…. To the degree that his step father threw her out and told me to keep Stuart and that lot out my life . His step dad was a really kind man actually- he’d just had enough of the constant manufactured drama
- 2024-04-14 02:27:53
In 2011 it was Ann “ I’m a mental health nurse and I can have you sectioned and your children taken” - turned out Ann was as mad as a box of frog’s herself. Never met the woman but it wasn’t a surprise when I found out she wasn’t a mental health nurse at all!
- 2024-04-14 02:24:49
Then there was the Pattersons and Heighs… and his mums pals from the bingo… all buying the poor me act and giving me grief on his behalf…,
- 2024-04-14 02:23:08
In 2010 there was his pals girlfriend, I forget her name and also his sisters partner Marisha - sending me constant abuse on his behalf…
- 2024-04-14 02:21:08
2009 there was Christine and her wee band of pals sending me threatening and abusive messages on his behalf. Christine ended up having him charged with sending her a video of him performing an act on himself Her friends apologised to me. And that was that.
- 2024-04-14 02:18:48
In 2007 there was another girl, I forget her name but I remember her face, she ended up with proverbial egg on her face and apologised to me after going to bat for him.
- 2024-04-14 02:17:22
In 2006 there was Sam - she thought he was a nice guy and I was a lunatic. She threatened me for him. She was only 16 he’d been having an affair with her - police had a word. And that was that.
- 2024-04-13 22:18:51
@wundt_vil Sadly that doesn’t shock me at all
- 2024-04-13 21:29:46
You’re not the first to buy his act. You’ll no doubt not be the last. But know this I will not bow to threats nor will I stop speaking out about the reality of the things that happened to me! You do not get to rewrite my history!
- 2024-04-13 21:26:51
I’ve taken all the hurt, pain and anguish he put us through and turned it into something positive. What’s he doing? Sitting about with poor me syndrome playing victim while you heap on the himpathy and you’re just daft enough to fall for the ac? I pity you I honestly do.

- 2024-04-05 08:48:04
They said they don’t deny the matter was discussed but they were there for a different reason. Yeah sure! They then went about threatening journalists and telling them to delete the story. Then set about following me about and threatening me to not talk about it again.
- 2024-04-05 08:46:03
They lied about attending my home saying they were never there. I had a photo, timed and dated, of them entering my home. Then they waited until they’d been reported for the comments made by Gary Ritchie about me before lying about why they were there.

@murdo_fraser @HumzaYousaf @Douglas4Moray @AnasSarwar I used to be for it, for the terminally ill, having watched a dear friend suffer with terminal cancer. However having seen the shit show in Canada I’m now firmly against . It’s too risky. Imagine going to your GP with depression and being offered MAiD and not help and support.

@BBCRadioScot Nope. Just look at how it’s gone in Canada. It will be abused and it will be the most vulnerable that suffer. It’s actually scary what’s happening with MAiD over there. I can’t imagine going to my GP with PTSD and being offered MAID instead of counselling and support!

@realityissreal @ThePosieParker The problem was I was there as a victim reporting domestic abuse. I had no lawyer. In Scot’s law the victim does not get legal representation for criminal cases. We merely become “witnesses” to our abuse for the COPFS if we ever even get that far…

@TsellSellersfam @ThePosieParker I do now, it was a harsh lesson. Never take your phone with you if you’re on a warrant or asked for a chat at the station or arrested was advice given to me by a solicitor. Apparently police Scotland are notorious for “accidentally” deleting evidence.

@ThePosieParker Once I was with police as a victim, they took my phone I thought to look at the photos of my injuries and the video/audio of my ex’s tirades of abuse. They “accidentally” wiped it. So I lost evidence and was unable to get proper protection through court. Never trust them.

@JackBlackIsle Exactly- she said there were potentially 1000s of victims who’d only been in the situation for a few weeks. One is one too many ! And then banging on about parental consent- no parent consented for their child to be abused- they consented for respite/short holiday stays.

@murdo_fraser @TheScotsman Police Scotland already routinely treat stalking, sexual violence and domestic abuse as “minor crimes” - they already routinely try to “persuade” victims not to report or refuse to take statements. I genuinely fear for victims (the vast majority of whom are women)

@fairlyorganic @PHughes74470229 That’s what I asked police to do last night, a welfare check, just incase- the line. “I’m about to make my final move” makes me concerned over harming himself or others. They weren’t bothered.

@CMochan Let me say as someone with Muslim family (I’m half Turkish) - there is nothing Islamophobic about that headline. Nothing. And let me say whilst womens DA services are being cut to the bone women are dying and being endangered- that money could have done a lot of good here!

I wish you a day, not a great day because for some of you today is filled with sadness, so a great day may be too ambitious, So take some time and do something for you even if it’s just put on the tunes & eat pizza, you are of no less value because of the difficulties you face. x https://t.co/Urn0cYpBo6

- 2024-03-07 07:30:02
We shouldn’t need to police what we wear but we do need to think on this one about how triggering it could be for some survivors. I have no doubt the campaign had noble intentions and seeks a change in law which would see the onus put where it belongs on perpetrators.
- 2024-03-07 07:27:23
Where I’ve no doubt that T-shirt would be used by some man as a defence “your honour she wore a T-shirt saying she was asking for it”
- 2024-03-07 07:25:22
We live in a world where a victims underwear was waved around in court as proof she was “asking for it”\nWhere our jobs, our relationship history, our having a drink, our marriage status, our dress is all used against us to say “asking for it”
- 2024-03-07 07:17:03
As a survivor of rape and DA can honestly say I’d never walk around in a T-shirt with the phrase used to me by the defence in court. I wasn’t asking for it then and I’m not asking for it now!

@ellieokwilson He’s a man though and another like minded man probably thought nothing of what he did. We can see the escalation and the pattern. A lot of officers are attracted to the police because they have certain proclivities and like the cloak of respectability and access to victims.

@JaneQuaife But if they don’t dehumanise her how can they make us plebs feel sympathy for him? Won’t people think of the poor menz?!\nIn all seriousness it’s utterly vile that they’ve done this. Dehumanising women and almost making excuses for perpetrators is disgraceful. #HerNameWasEmma

In my opinion: every time a judge or sheriff hands down an unduly lenient sentence to a paedophile it should immediately trigger a thorough investigation into his own background and activities.
- 2024-02-28 08:26:59
3) How many victims are there? 4) How many whistleblowers were silenced and threatened? 5) How deep does the cover up go? 6) How many of these sheriffs and judges have let off fellow paedos in their working life?
- 2024-02-28 08:23:44
Since this story was published and with my own personal experience of certain social workers police and Andrew Lothian. I ask 1) how many other rings were operating out of our courts? 2)Just how many police officers, social workers, sheriffs and solicitors were/are involved? https://t.co/g6gHpUGCDJ

@ThePosieParker @NHS I was gob smacked at her saying we’re all female in the womb as a defence- that’s bollocks. Sex determination of a baby happens during fertilisation. So we’re either male or female from the point of conception. I was taught that in S2 biology.

@severnaya66 What does “working with risk” cover? I know someone who became a social worker after working with womens aid. She said that if not for her experience with women’s aid she’d be clueless as only got 4 hours on DV in her studies and it was extremely basic.
- 2024-02-12 08:16:46
It is so important that those working with survivors are properly trained- this should include police, council housing officers, sheriffs, solicitors, fiscals… each cog in the wheel must work properly. Failures in this context cost lives.
- 2024-02-12 08:12:56
Social Workers and other professionals who do not have proper training in domestic abuse dynamics, perpetrator behaviours and tactics are dangerous to survivors of DV. They easily fall for the DARVO acts and place victims in further danger. They should face severe consequences!
- 2024-02-12 07:42:21
And after this pathetic “sentence” he walked free from court to torment me for ten years and counting. Even moving away via womens aid, and changing our surname didn’t provide any protection. Social workers fawn over him because they fall for the nice guy “act”. He is dangerous.

@seige_of @csav55 Jesus!! - I have asked before if mine has to kill me before they do anything. They ignored me for years until the night he ran me over with his car, swear they only attended because the doctors in A&E called them. He was convicted of that but even that didn’t protect us….
- 2024-02-05 06:58:30
@SarahVaci Up until recently you could actually buy it in our chemist! Whenever I was ill as a child my Dad would come in from work with a bottle of lucozade and a copy of Twinkle
- 2024-02-05 06:39:11
@AlexaAdams12 @drowsyfire Things like that happen here in Scotland too, I’ve heard many stories of sheriffs and solicitors insisting on refuge addresses being divulged to perpetrators in FC. They’re either wilfully ignorant or deliberately trying to endanger women and children. Either way it’s criminal
- 2024-02-04 21:10:41
@Spare130198 @drowsyfire Yeah I’ve seen that - the F4J Facebook is full of perpetrators making threats about ex’s too.
- 2024-02-04 20:25:56
@JMoncktonSmith Completely disgusting- I really hope the police take it seriously. He’s basically stalking/harassing her from behind bars! What the hell are the prison playing at?
- 2024-02-04 20:15:41
@BradfemlyWalsh @janeclarejones Exactly.
- 2024-02-04 19:48:47
@magapanthus Glaringly so
- 2024-02-04 16:57:03
@drowsyfire It should be a criminal offence to reveal the whereabouts of a victim who has fled to the perpetrator they’ve fled from! But council staff especially social workers are absolutely clueless about domestic abuse- dangerously clueless.
- 2024-02-04 16:54:48
@drowsyfire It’s easier than you think. I moved away via womens aid, changed our surname, two data breaches from eejits at the council and he’d traced us within two weeks of us leaving refuge and getting a new tenancy. Police mocked me for being scared - didn’t even DASH us.
- 2024-02-04 16:45:34
@tismeagainuk @MrsLouiseWS 12 people injured , but the fact people were helping her and the children gives me some hope for humanity.
- 2024-02-04 12:36:23
@oGaZm121707 They kept saying they didn’t know if they were known to each other initially.
- 2024-02-04 10:59:05
@JoolzDenby @ipa1869 Exactly. They’ve no idea how hard it is to leave/end the relationship with that kind of man. They’ve no idea just how dangerous they can be.
- 2024-02-04 10:54:38
@csav55 Jesus! I can’t like this - I m glad you weren’t there and glad you’re safe.
- 2024-02-04 10:48:31
@MrsLouiseWS I really hope so too. Mothers injuries described as life changing. But the children’s injuries were not as bad as first thought. I was really frightened for the wee one after hearing reports about what he did to her. I hope they are well supported going forward.

@ripx4nutmeg Transing the dead…

@fay_rain Exactly- this never should have happened to them 💔
- 2024-02-04 09:32:54
@MaryKelly2023 It would actually save us way more than it cost us… as a survivor myself I’m more than prepared to do the work and do try my best to campaign and make change for others like changing the law and badgering organisations regarding lack of training and awareness
- 2024-02-04 09:28:28
How many more women and children are acceptable collateral damage before they actually do start “learning the lessons”? How many more women and children must be harmed or worse before they start taking things seriously?
- 2024-02-04 09:26:59
I’m so sick of the police claiming that they take domestic abuse seriously when the opposite is glaringly obvious. Then once it’s too late they trot out that tired old wet wipe of a speech “we are sorry blah blah lessons will be learned” - only lessons never are learned
- 2024-02-04 09:24:56
When a perpetrator loses his grip of control he will stop at nothing to try to regain that control. Police and services rarely pay heed to red flags and threats. If they did perhaps they’d do more to keep women and children safe from perpetrators rather than being dismissive
- 2024-02-04 09:22:33
It has now been confirmed that the 31 year old victim was formerly in a relationship with Abdul Edazi. I called it as soon as I heard it and was blasted on line and off! (You can’t say that you don’t know…) The most dangerous time for a woman is in the months post separation.
- 2024-02-04 05:57:05
@AMous67162 @jadewelshy Bollocks actually there’s a link to stress in pregnancy and autism/adhd and who is more likely to experience that - mothers who are being abused. That’s why there is higher rates amongst DV survivors children. The vaccine theory was disproven.
- 2024-02-04 05:51:39
@jadewelshy It helps a little to know I’m not alone that this is a tactic of their abuse of protective parents- it’s scandalous though
- 2024-02-04 05:50:27
@jadewelshy I had a full assessment done by a psychiatrist who concluded there was absolutely nothing wrong with me except trauma from the domestic abuse and they refused to accept or acknowledge the report. They wouldn’t even accept or acknowledge my ex’s convictions and police reports
- 2024-02-04 05:48:21
@jadewelshy remove her but boy did they try! One day they’d say I was emotionally enmeshed the next they’d say I was cold and distant- I’d ask them to make up their minds and be told off for being disrespectful! They only believe medical diagnosis and documentation if it fits their narrative
- 2024-02-04 05:45:42
@jadewelshy This happened to me too, they claimed I was having trouble bonding and had munchausen by proxy despite me having the back up of our GP and professionals, the SW went as far as claiming I’d bewitched my GP when I said “this isn’t 1600’s Salem” I was reprimanded. They didn’t
- 2024-02-03 08:02:27
@ChoralSymphony @Glinner And your attitude and others like it being dismissive of potential stalking is what leads to women being murdered by stalkers. He might be peacocking for attention…. He might not.
- 2024-02-03 06:48:59
@ChoralSymphony @Glinner It’s up to the police to investigate mate. Not for you to act as judge and jury against KJ or anyone else concerned about this. Not taking stalking seriously can potentially lead to murder! Don’t be flippant about it.
- 2024-02-03 06:14:58
@ChoralSymphony @Glinner Stalking law is two or more incidents (not necessarily criminal) but that carouse or could cause fear and alarm. Some random sending me “gifts” in 2020 freaked me out. Turned out it was my ex - his way of letting me know he had our address again (after moving again)
- 2024-02-03 06:08:07
@nazirafzal I don’t think they should have been identified like that it feeds into the glorification of murderers- the “celebrity” of it. The girl was obsessed with serial killers like Dahmer. Aren’t we feeding the beast by having their photos and details out there and salivating over it?
- 2024-02-03 06:02:10
@ParamilyUK They reframe it as a parenting fail of the victim (more often than not the mother) - blaming her for the abuse! That needs to stop because it’s just another layer of abuse. Victims are never to blame for the abuse they suffered!
- 2024-02-02 00:32:09
@SamKmuffin @laurarichards99 They never take domestic abuse or stalking seriously until it’s too late 💔
- 2024-02-02 00:30:20
@darrengrimes_ Just wait, sometime this week they’ll trot out that “we are sorry….lessons will be learned” speech! I wonder how many times she had reported him to police prior to last night?
- 2024-02-01 23:48:55
@SamKmuffin @laurarichards99 This was my first suspicion when I heard the news, I wonder how many times she contacted the police prior to this? I expect the “lessons will be learned” speech any time now…. I’ve heard that speech trotted out so many times in the last 35 years I could quote it backwards 💔
- 2024-02-01 08:58:59
@SarahVaci Dewberry until I was 16, then white Musk, which I still wear now. I did betray it for a brief stint of anais anais, then Ozbek by Rifat Ozbek until it was discontinued in the early 2000’s
- 2024-02-01 08:53:45
Dear Take a break, That’s Life and Chat, Respectfully do one! I will not speak to your writers because any DV story you print you seek the abusers side too and glorify them and amplify their voice. The man who abused me deserves nothing but contempt! You’re part of the problem!
- 2024-01-30 00:39:13
All too often in society we shame girls for the sins of men! Let’s change that! Let’s place that shame back where it belongs!

We are now here, The 25th January 2024, and we are STILL waiting for the date for the chamber debate! The petition remains open for consideration and has cross party support. I haven’t given up and nor will I!
- 2024-01-25 12:50:24
For those unaware we are requesting an amendment to the current Domestic Abuse (Scotland) Act 2018: (this wording is by Dr Neal) https://t.co/aqOKhmCpyI
- 2024-01-25 12:47:57
In my response to her submission I stated: “it is very obvious things are simply not working as they should and empty words of faux sympathy do little to change our plight.” This was on 31st October 2023.
- 2024-01-25 12:45:48
In September 2023 our Cabinet secretary for justice, Angela Constance, said “ I am not persuaded at this time that we should introduce a new offence” in her submission. However the request for a debate was continued.
- 2024-01-25 12:43:06
Later that year professionals including Dr Marsha Scott and Dr Mary Neal gave evidence to the committee. Again the petition was held open and it was progressed for a chamber debate.
- 2024-01-25 12:41:14
In 2022 I gave evidence in person (accompanied by my mother) to the committee. There was lots of press coverage and interest. The committee, moved by my testimony, held my petition open and progressed it.
- 2024-01-25 12:39:21
In 2021 I raised the issue of domestic abuse in pregnancy and the lack of protection and access to justice for survivors who have experienced pregnancy loss through DV via the CPPPC in the Scottish Parliament.
- 2024-01-25 11:34:56
@sammywoodhouse1 They always go after those of us telling the truth. I’ve been getting the same for near 25 years because I was reporting concerns I had about Sheriff Andrew Lothian. He was part of a ring known locally as the magic circle- so called because evidence kept “disappearing”. https://t.co/QTlikrlYbb
- 2024-01-23 07:10:26
@salltweets We don’t tell anorexia sufferers they’re really fat, we don’t tell schizophrenics that the voices are real, and we don’t tell those experiencing mania that they’re having brilliant ideas…so why is the delusional belief that you’re the opposite sex magically exempt?
- 2024-01-23 05:30:43
I’m not going anywhere until I make sure that other women have the access to justice and support they need. It is abhorrent that our government is deaf blind and dumb on this issue!
- 2024-01-23 05:25:21
At every turn the police, social work, the judiciary etc have been complicit in the abuse by negligence of their duties and gross misunderstandings in how perpetrators of domestic abuse operate. They don’t change, they escalate! These people were supposed to help us.
- 2024-01-23 05:21:46
The incident was in 2013, with court being in 2014. He had previously forced me to have a termination against my will in 2009 and had been abusing me since 2004. This was not justice! He is still abusing me to this day- just differently: post separation abuse!
- 2024-01-23 05:18:54
My ex partner deliberately hit me with his car, I was dragged along the road in front of my young children, I miscarried less than 48 hours later due to my injuries. He told led guilty at the last gasp at court. His sentence was to pay me £300 “compensation for my loss”.
- 2024-01-23 05:14:35
In 2022 we were promised a chamber debate regarding the proposed amendment to the Domestic Abuse (Scotland) Act. It’s 2024 and still no word on a date! Women matter. Abused women deserve access to justice! https://t.co/vgJSRJQVBQ

@berthatydfil We agree!
- 2024-01-22 08:13:02
@salltweets Quite possibly- I do recall times in my own work life when I’ve put up with disgusting behaviour from male bosses because I had to put food on the table and keep a roof over my kids heads. I’ve no doubt some are in that position where they’d love to quit but can’t.
- 2024-01-22 07:59:40
@salltweets He was so much worse than we thought. The women who allowed him into not only ERCC but FVRCC and Shakti should bow their heads in shame! They’ve shown nothing but contempt for vulnerable traumatised women!
- 2024-01-22 07:54:07
When we made this statement it was because we were disturbed and horrified by the way MW was speaking about victims of sexual violence. We felt it wasn’t right to direct already vulnerable and traumatised women to a service that would further harm their recovery.
- 2024-01-21 11:14:12
Every time they let a police officer/social worker/sheriff/judge off with their crimes they send us a message of what they really think about women and children! I’m disgusted but not surprised that he’s not in jail…

@CHearingScandal @HumzaYousaf @scotgov @ScotGovFM @scotgovopen @PermSecScot And I raised this issue with him in 2018-2019! So he cannot claim ignorance- he knew and he knew that the corruption was also impacting innocent families - usually DV survivors.
- 2023-07-07 05:59:12
@trinnas @MKellyWrites @DrEmmaMilne Between when I lost my son Brodie & when I lodged the petition there were over 7000 incidents of DV involving pregnant women, only 6 made it to court. Because it’s not a crime technically. This isn’t about personhood for the foetus but real access to justice for women!
- 2022-07-24 18:58:59
@AustinRSheridan What is the evidence that this was “the wimin” - you see Karen has made false allegations before and been caught out so I’d personally like to be certain this isn’t another false flag to vilify innocent women.
- 2022-06-23 08:33:51
@ErikPro2A Yes, Brodies, in 4 days it’s the anniversary of when I lost my son Brodie.
- 2022-06-07 19:12:31
@RetroBoxing That’s a huge reach! I’m not saying we should- they should get a fair trial and innocent until proven guilty. But when over 98% of victims are telling the truth we can’t label them all vindictive liars can we? Imagine how traumatic that is on top of the trauma of being violated.
- 2022-06-04 10:30:26
@sinboy Pretty much they’ve even showed up in the comments to try blame Amber for my ex abusing me - or infer he’s innocent and I’ve no proof- whole new levels of cray cray
- 2022-06-02 20:40:00
@RobSPierreduMex Are you implying I’m an abuser and that my ex is innocent? He plead guilty and was convicted so carefully consider your answer. You know someone could think you were libelling me.
- 2022-06-01 10:19:03
This survey was carried out with 40 female Domestic Abuse survivors in the United Kingdom in 2018. None of the respondents were service users of Brodie’s Trust. Some were or had been service users of Perthshire Women’s Aid. https://t.co/SnyIi90TAW

@88Aonghas @AcrossParents I’m a church going mother of 5 who lost three babies through domestic abuse and forced termination. I run Brodie’s Trust. You’re being a disgusting vile tantrum if individuals trying to dictate what I must think and feel! I’m saying the issue black and white!!!
- 2022-05-03 16:48:48
@88Aonghas @AcrossParents I also know that a high majority will be forced terminations!! Since I run Brodie’s Trust and I “literally” did a study on the subject of domestic abuse/forced termination🤷♀️
- 2022-04-12 08:01:11
Brodie is buried in the side chapel of the Priory Church, South Queensferry. This was my church for nearly two decades, my 3 younger daughters were all baptised here. There’s an anchor in the gardens where flowers are often left for him by family & friends, occasionally strangers https://t.co/qp4EExLHcA

@JoannaIsBack16 Likewise Joanna - I run Brodie’s Trust which is a support group for women who’ve lost their babies through domestic violence or forced termination. We’re based in Scotland but we also have a private online group on Facebook.

@EMmommanuke @SarahNimmoDXB @afrofemrage @IikeClockwork @DipDianne @reporterboy Yeah - I’m not buying the backtracking here I’ve read and screenshot all the comments you’ve made to others regarding Brodie’s Trust. Sorry but it’s a wild take and really not doing you any favours.

@tga1976 @trixymalixy @DiabolicDyke420 @Woman562 @SamCoatesSky @Keir_Starmer @UKLabour Hi Scott you’re sailing close to the wind there… I’m Nicola Murray founder of Brodie’s Trust - a support group for women who’ve experienced pregnancy loss through domestic abuse or forced termination. Want to call me a liar directly or just behind my back?
- 2022-03-31 20:46:44
@CF_Farrow I get that a lot running Brodie’s Trust - and folk will say “nobody forces anyone to have an abortion” - I know different, and I’ve met so many women like me online and in real life. I’m currently petitioning the Scottish Parliament to change the law around DV and pregnancy loss https://t.co/OwROwB3Oei
- 2022-03-31 13:23:46
@SuzyCreamcheez3 @laineyathamey @danaandra @Forbes Ah but you just said “genuinely affects no woman ever in her daily life” - it was shit take. It was diminishing the real trauma experienced by myself at the loss of my sons and the hundreds of women I’ve supported through Brodie’s Trust. True colours flown. Thank you!
- 2022-03-30 17:12:56
@Barbibb @FrancesCoppola She’s too far gone for rational engagement. Despite my previous tweet warning against her continued defamation of Brodie’s trust she cannot help herself. I’ve tweeted twice in this thread regarding the fact that we daily get TW/Men trying to access our services
- 2022-03-30 15:59:51
@Frances_Coppola @malegauze @MForstater Sticking up for AGP males with a miscarriage fetish probably isn’t the hill you want to plant your flag on Frances. I leave it at that. There will be no further interaction between us nor allegations regarding Brodie’s Trust. I hope that’s understood.
- 2022-03-27 08:14:58
@Lolo54531629 I’ve had one AGP with a miscarriage fetish try his luck last August. I got dragged and threatened online and off because I refused to allow him along. In truth I get more abuse from TRA’s saying Brodie’s is transphobic and “not safe for trans people” and all the usual hyperbole
- 2022-03-26 11:52:41
For all the TRA mob who don’t understand: Brodie’s is a support group for women who’ve lost babies through domestic violence or forced termination. Run by women for women. I refer you all to the last paragraph of my pinned statement. Nothing transphobic about safeguarding!
- 2022-03-25 10:31:37
I obviously approve of the name for this adorable little guy. My Brodie would’ve been 5 this year had he lived. I love hearing his name, it’s like a balm for the briefest of moments.

Jesus! I’ve been trolled and threatened by TRA’s for 30 hours straight now!! 30 hours of them obsessing over a 14yr old girl and making up malicious stuff - some of them even went to the bother of messaging me via Brodie’s Trust since they can’t do so here now.
- 2021-12-11 13:42:03
@deportablediz I do not ever use that word, which I consider a slur, towards anyone. Why would you try to claim I do or would? Oh yeah cause Brodie’s Trust is women only therefore I’m the devil because I didn’t let a man come and play pretend. Oh how nasty of me to protect the actual victims

Legit just had someone comment on my Facebook “could this be changed to when people support people.. blah blah.. promote unity” - Aw hell no! Read the room. I’m thanking a women’s organisation for supporting Brodie’s Trust - I don’t need to centre men, or bow the knee.
- 2021-11-11 11:29:53

Here’s something that my colleague and I are discussing going forward in addition to our current Brodie’s Trust services. A fortnightly female only meet up, you don’t have to be a victim/survivor but just a woman. A safe space, conversation, tea & cake?

I know quite a few people are keen to donate to Brodie’s Trust. For the moment I’m holding off posting anything up - firstly until the clone account is actually down. And secondly I’m now being accused of all sorts of things and just need a break from it. \nThanks everyone x

@tehbewilderness You are vindictive and nasty and set out to smear me & Brodie’s Trust! I don’t care to waste my time arguing with an American over a Scottish and UK petition! The wording we have in the actual documents is clear that it cannot be used to criminalise the women!!

I just want to state that this person’s extreme & bizarre interpretation of Brodie’s Law is absolutely NOT what we are trying to get in place! Never! I’m actually furious at this persons wild accusations and cryptic comments over Twitter!! https://t.co/h8M8UBx7rn

@itsvioletlux Recently had Brodie’s attacked by someone who wanted to come along and pretend to be a victim then called me transphobic and got a pile on for saying no (we are trans inclusive for trans men) but I’ll not have my resources misused by anyone. The person said they were a TW

@LynAnge11 I also conducted a study into ‘domestic abuse in pregnancy’ in 2018 and used a sample group of 40 female domestic abuse survivors including service users of Perthshire Women’s Aid. None of the women were Brodie’s Trust service users.

I met so many women who had suffered similar experiences to me - we all felt that the system minimised such losses and doesn’t recognise the lifelong impact on us as grieving mothers. \n\nI set up a support group - Brodie’s Trust in honour of my little lad.

Why is Brodie’s Law important? \nAs the law currently stands if a perpetrator of DV causes a miscarriage, still birth or forces a woman to terminate her pregnancy against her will, they cannot be adequately prosecuted, and this leads to lenient sentences being available in court.

“Brodie’s Law” Please sign & also share the links. The law will only affect perpetrators of DV who cause pregnancy loss, stillbirth or force a termination by administering drugs or forcing her to a clinic by coercion. \nThe law will not affect reproductive rights for women. 1/2
