Stalking victims say new ways needed to tackle crime
"You can never do enough research or investigations when it comes to this type of thing, because for stalkers, it's a full time job."The Home Office said it took stalking "extremely seriously" while the National Police Chief's Council said it recognised more needed to be done to improve outcomes for victims.
It is currently in a research stage, but police forces are already piloting it ahead of it being published.Dhillon travelled from Edinburgh to Gateshead to leave flowers on Alice's doorstep."But what we don't think is that he took a whole day off work just to leave those flowers, so we've probably got eight hours of stalking in that day, the stalking is his full-time job.
Prof Smith added that, if the amount of time someone invested in stalking was considered, it can be a lightbulb going on, and could make people think, "actually this person is quite dangerous". Both Gwent Police and South Wales Police said they had worked with Prof Smith to bring her training into their forces. North Wales Police does not have plans to introduce this work.
"We know when we're going about our investigations, we're maximising the evidence collection process, whilst also making sure the victim is safe to continue their lives."
