Foxy thanks. The link still did not work but the Google search criteria did. The site seems to be an advocacy site but the material is interesting and I've not managed to find any major counter arguments.

I found a really interesting article searching for references to the drug. Well worth a read (although as usual I'm not finished yet).

From my readings so far the use of the drug could be a significant help with sex offenders who want to change.

Hey guys = dont go rushing to hand those 'counciling signs' on your door just yet with all that -"loving" concern -for abuse victims.

Well at least we sorted that one out = you dont give a dam about this person we asked advise for.

I think I was right in the first place with my gut intstinct as to what should be done with offenders.

Hilarious, reminds me of some animal welfare groups- all about the mouths flapping but by god dont expect and practicle assistance from them.

Sorry WE asked- Carry on 'pretending' you care about abuse victims

People Against Live Exports & Intensive Farming, it's likely that none of us know how to make the police do what they choose to avoid doing. I've certainly got no special knowledge or contacts in that area.

I've assumed that your request for advice was for advice from those who could make a meaningful contribution. Whilst I'm not always shy about expressing uninformed opinions your situation did not seem the right place for that.

Having said that I'll toss my two cents in but I've assumed that these are things you would have already considered.

Is the situation one where media attention would help? The news and current affairs shows seem keen for stories. That can be a risky approach, you don't want kids exposed to further harm if the shows act irresponsibly but maybe worth considering. Have you talked to BraveHearts, Abused Child Trust, Child Protection authorities etc?

"Carry on 'pretending' you care about abuse victims" (Quote: PALE&IF)

You wouldn't be leveling that little snipe at me would you??

Good Heavens no. Why on earth would you even have thought that.
It just so happens that i agreed with your post.
No really its ok I was actually having a shot if you like at Robert and Vanilla if they are different posters.

Ginx I really was asking for any advise regarding this person. I didnt want to say it but the victim in this case is female.

I just dont see why that should make any difference because a victim is a victim and a abuser is a abuser.

I read the comment about the abuser saying and doing things to make the victim fel less of a person and destroy their self esteam.
That rang a bell to me because this abuser has always told the vitim they were the product of rape by the grandfather.

I was wondering if that type of abuse was common. I really do not know because its not my area.
I just suspect that what the abuser said is a lie but the victim is almost hysterical if i try to say- you should find out if you can.

As I said I am well out of my comfort zone here and by the police disregarding this complaint its made it worse because the victim went through five fill days of re living everything and now has another slap in the face that nobody cares.
The detective told me outside it was the worste case he had heard.

So in all honesty I thought that Robert and Vanilla might have some advise.

However as I said its clear they are not interested to help this person and I dont know what to do anymore.

Sorry that you thought I meant you Ginx but no- You were wrong
I wont bother this thread again.

Nicely handled PALE&IF.

It's a touchy subject and there ain't no one more touchy than me on this!
