Today at work I received what was probably one of the most shocking phones of my life. At around 10:30 I was informed that my partner had been arrested, for at that point an unstated crime.
Around an hour later I had another call from the police asking if everything was OK in our relationship and was he good to me. Informing them that all was OK at home, I was told to be ready for a call from my SO within an hour.
It seems he has been accused for sexual assault of an ex dating to the late 1990s. It seems his ex has denied any existence of their relationship, and of his bisexuality. The lack of consent in their relationship is pretty clear to me as they were together until the mid 2000s and remained friends until the end of the decade when the ex was sentenced to prison (not for the first time either - my partner has never been in trouble though).
The interview lasted about half an hour, and he has been bailed for the next 3 months.
Right now I just feel sick that anyone could do this to someone and how the police could even take it seriously. I just hope this will be over soon, although this site makes me realise it could last months.
Anyway, having looked at many of the threads on here people are of great support. I hope I can grow to be part of that.
