Northumbria Police more or less ignored Nina Cresswell when she reported being sexually assaulted.

Now she’s holding them to account for the suffering their negligence caused.

🚨 BREAKING: I obtained the letter the DOJ sent to Congress about today's Epstein files release. NOW IT ALL MAKES SENSE! The law requires 5 exceptions. They're using 8. Here's what they're hiding and why it matters.

There is hope in the government’s new VAWG strategy, but promises alone won’t deliver change.

Urgent action, survivor-led change, and better funding for organisations tackling violence against women and girls are needed now. Survivors can’t wait.

Honestly one of the more traumatizing parts of being the victim of a tragedy is the constant question of why you put yourself in a position to be a victim of the tragedy in the first place. Everyone loves to blame the victim for being victimized. Makes them feel like they can control it.
