Good for this woman, the UK and freedom!
There seem to still be issues at play here:
“West Midlands Police has now issued an apology for the time taken to close Isabel’s case, confirming that “there will be no further investigation into the alleged matter, and there will be no further action taken”.
However, the police force failed to explain why they initially informed Vaughan-Spruce that the delay was a result of the matter being referred to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) to consider charges – a claim which the CPS has firmly denied.
In response to an FOI request, the CPS confirmed that they “hold no information” concerning a second case being referred to them for a charging decision and that “the police should not submit a case to the CPS for charging advice when they have the power to make the charging decision themselves”, as was the case for Vaughan–Spruce’s alleged offense.
With support from ADF UK, Vaughan-Spruce is currently considering options to pursue redress for her treatment at the hands of the police.” – https://adf.uk/vindication-silent-prayer/
