Please use and share this 2 minute letter writing tool to call on the government to bring the Gaia Principle into law. It will help ensure that survivors of Rape & Serious Sexual Offenses are no longer endangered and denied justice because police fail to investigate a suspect properly and has been proposed as Amendment (NC48) to the Criminal Justice Bill.
The Gaia Principle compels investigating officers to investigate suspects thoroughly, checking for other allegations of abuse against them. By doing so it will unite survivors’ voices for justice and make sure those failed as Gaia was failed can hold the police to account.
Gaia’s story is a powerful illustration of the need for real accountability in policing. During the inquest into her death, officer after officer admitted they had failed to follow, or were not even aware of, existing guidance. Not one of them faced any consequences.
