Is the implication here that rape and domestic violence victims should not "involve the police"?https://twitter.com/daijahmystique/status/1306412877973258242 …

I wish I could publicly share this officer's name, because he was my champion and he deserves recognition for what he does for women and other vulnerable people in SF. But it's 2020, and it's twitter, and I know I can't do that.

One final thing: going to the police protected me, but it also gave me the opportunity to provide evidence critical to some counts concerning other victims. My stalker is going to trial on 11 total charges. Only two of them concern me.

Ugh. The whole time must have been horrible. Good that you were protected. And I wish you that you will truly recover from this.

Want to share, had a similar personal experience with a domestic dispute between me and my father and witnessed a situation similar to yours between two of my roommates. Police called after days of arguing turned into hitting and the physical one threatened to kill herself.

Got a police report after she fled the house that later helped him get a restraining order. Sherriff offered to serve it for us but she was hiding and we didn't know where to find her so he put a BOLO on the car she had taken.

I was young, and going to the police felt scary to me. I involved my college instead, and got a "stay away" letter that did nothing. If anything, we should be encouraging women to involve police, because it's really the only thing that makes a bad situation stop.
