Gaia amendment to be proposed in Parliament to hold police investigating rape to account

NEW legislation is being proposed in Parliament today in memory of Dorset teenager Gaia Pope-Sutherland to improve police accountability during sexual violence investigations.

Ms Pope-Sutherland died during a mental health crisis within two years of reporting to police that she had been a victim of child sexual exploitation by a known sex offender.

Her case was dropped by Dorset Police.
