This doesn’t feel like justice

Everything's over because sentencing has happened but it doesn't feel like justice. They had an account and other people they followed posted it who they blocked and reported. But the police said that they can't prove that they reported it and, even if they blocked, seeing it is enough. Made worse by intrusive thoughts and stories written in notes app - a coping mechanism recommended by an old therapist! But they said it paints a picture. I understand why the police have taken the actions that they have but it feels like the outcome of ruining their life isn't what's needed here. We were working since teenagers to get them mental help for their past of abuse and now they're in trouble and none of the people who hurt them from a young age see any consequences. They did not seek out this material. It pains me that there's no way to really appeal this and that we have no money for this anyway. It will be a stain forever. I want to believe they're lying to me so I could walk away but I don't. Everyday feels so heavy.
