Hi, I am looking for advice/help.
In September 2014 my (then) 17 year old son, was asked at very short notice to baby sit for our best (sic) friends daughter, on a Thursday night for a few hours.
her daughter was in bed asleep when he arrived and was still asleep when he left 2 hours later.
3 days later, on the saturday the friends daughter says her 3 year old had told her she had orally touched my son.
All hell broke that morning.
The police arrested my son ( 2 police vans 1 patrol car, all lights and sirens. 7 police officers)
They arrested, finger printed, sexual dna test, (17 year old virgin) frightened him to death. Removed his cloths? Took his lap top, the whole 9 yards.
The police investigated him, then the rest of the my family, even back to my first and very short lived first marriage and son to that marriage.
This affected his college work as the brother of the accuser went to the same college and started spreading rumour's, although this was very quickly stamped on by police and college staff, but the damage had already been done. his social life stopped and he literally stayed in his bedroom.
My son maintained he was innocent,
now 9 months later,
his Computer check. Totally clean. not returned yet.
dna check. clear. but keeping on file
9 months later, the police CID arrive, NFA but to be kept on file.
We have asked what evidence they have to keep the file but they have refused to say.
The little girls mother, ( our best friends daughter), has called rape on herself before then dropped the allegation, she is known for causing trouble, heavy drinking and drug taking.
What avenues are open to us to get this NFA changed.
the whole police investigation was a farce from the beginning. the female cid officer went on the sick 2 months after the investigation started. and is still on the sick. a new female cid officer was introduced to us but would not talk to us about anything, she then went sick, so an ex male cid officer (retired) working as an agency type was brought in. he seemed to be more approachable. avenues were investigated that had nothing to do with the initial investigation. and we lived each day with the thought that the accusation would become general knowledge and the wolves would start to surround our home. we have lived the nightmare.
sorry about the ramble, but we thought once he was removed from bail we would feel happier, but the NFA has left us with a very bad taste in our mouths and we feel this will be with our son for ever more.
any advice would be welcome. there must be something we can do to prove our sons total innocence once and for all.
