  • CPS makes major changes to their Rape Policy for making a Decision to Prosecute -March 2019

    Hi All,

    The following url refers -

    https://www.cps.gov.uk/legal-guidanc...licy-statement

    I have extracted the relevant sentence -

    The Decision to Prosecute

    "When deciding whether to prosecute a rape allegation, the two stage Full Code Test must be satisfied in exactly the same way as for allegations not involving rape. In terms of the evidence, there must be a realistic prospect of conviction."

    This should end the last 10 years of the Police/CPS believing every rape allegation without evidence and putting many men through hell to be found not guilty.

    I believe the Police/CPS should pay substantial compensation to all those they falsely charged with rape and who were later acquitted

    Unhappy
Working...
