Officer in Charge practices and relates issues
Feline2017 * posted a topic in General Policing Discussions
Hello To cut a long story short I was arrested on suspicion of harassment/stalking (unspecified and no allegation of violence/ threats ) of ex many months ago now and bailed then RUi Would the OiC tell a suspect if their case is to be referred to CPS or charged or dropped or just leave it for a letter/requisition to arrive My questions might provide answers of benefit to other members or readers of this forum. If it is deemed unsuitable for inclusion then my apologies. My OiC rarely or very slowly gets back to enquiries. I don't want to pester because on one hand I get it that there is a hefty workload and I won't as I wouldn't like to enhance an impression of being an overly persistent person given the nature of the investigation ! Also when you are bailed with quite strict conditions and then converted to RUI does that mean a senior officer now thinks differently of the perceived risk that led to to the conditions quite recently. At least that's how I interpreted it . They did tell me I was likely to be converted in advance and that there was no need to go down on X day of X month. Another thing I have noticed is that no indication is given up to this point (orally at or post arrest or interview or in any custody paperwork that you can get copies of ) of what section it is thought you may have breached. I assumed from what was disclosed at interview re alleged impact that the non aggravated version of the offence/s applied but then what if the complainant months in says their impact is now evolved to be substantial or that they now feel afraid when they didn't prior to the police intervention.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/32493749/woman-goes-to-police-over-wolf-whistles I was wondering if this could go anywhere. A s2 Protection of Harassment Act offence as below should look pretty familiar to most: I would say that the article suggests there is a course of conduct. The main question is whether the builder ought to know that their conduct amounts to harassment. Not sure it meets that point to prove, but a harassment warning would sort that out. Thoughts? Would you suggest this is not a police matter? My thoughts is that this could very well form a harassment offence.

I went on a few dates with a girl which ended quite badly. Beforehand, she contacted my ex via email, and kept on at her, asking why we were still friends. I ended things. This girl then started pestering me with numerous phone calls. She emailed my ex again and my ex reported her to the police last night, and they told her to tell the girl who was emailing to stop sending the emails, and if she receives any more then my ex needs to contact the police again, and they would then trace the address because the email should be linked to online shopping accounts etc. My ex said if she emails her again then she needs to contact the police again and she will get done for harassment. Before things turned badly with this girl, she had used her email at my house and on my phone - I don't know if she contacted my ex from my house, but it's now got me concerned on whether I will get caught up in this. I didn't think the report was necessary, but my ex got het up about it and did it anyway. Neither of us have heard from this girl now, which is a good thing. I've since tried to email the girl to tell her it'd be best to stop the emails and the email has been sent back, as though the address doesn't exist anymore. So, will police be waiting for the girl to contact my ex again - that's if she does - and wait for her to make another report before they trace the address? I don't know where this girl lives either, I met her on a night out, and she came to mine a couple of times.
