A rape victim is now residing close to the man who assaulted her, Christopher Lawson, who was released on parole after serving half of his 16-year sentence. Despite previous government claims of a safety plan and an 'exclusion zone' aimed at preventing contact between them, the actual geography of these zones is insufficient. Local MP Kate Osborne has advocated for an urgent review, highlighting the risk of proximity between the victim and her attacker as a serious concern for public safety. The exclusions have been minimally adjusted, failing to adequately protect the victim.
The government failed to provide adequate protection for a rape victim, releasing her attacker without ensuring the exclusion zone sufficiently prevented their contact.
Despite reassurances from Lord Timpson about the creation of a safety plan, Christopher Lawson was released with an inadequate exclusion zone that still puts the victim at risk.
