Hi

First time posting. Have so many questions but this is something I need to know more so.

5 months on, OH has moved out, lost their job. We're having to sell and I'll be moving with the kids. I have been advised to move away from the area for our safety, backlash and for the kids sake.

Do I really? Has anyone had such a bad time after press release that they wished they had moved. Did your kids get bullied from others.

Was you recognised in the street?

How much information do the press release?

What about family members that also live close by?

I have also been told to change my surname ASAP. Should I?

Thank you x

Can I ask who advised you to change your name?



I'm considering it but not sure!

I am terrified about the backlash that may come. The knock came approx 3 months ago - my husband has admitted to everything which is online communication with a child and sending videos/images. 15 devices have been seized still to be examined, so no idea what they will find - the biggest fear I have is that his case will be very high profile due to his profession (teacher). I want to start running and never come back!!

Not to alarm but think depends what type of area you live in my family member home was attacked by vigilante who gathered a group of over 80 people vandalised home infront of cops who did nothing to stop it may I add , family member didnt move but young person had no choice , images sent by group chat never asked for or downloaded media made it worse by only printing what they wanted unfortunately I have listed a complaint with police
