Tianne gave evidence about her abuse while she was alive, yet after her death it was treated as hearsay. We call on the Government to introduce a law to prevent this, and for it to be known as Tianne Olivia's law. Clare’s Law allows the disclosure of information about previous history of abuse, but we think this must include active monitoring by the police of high-risk perpetrators. We also call on the Government to strengthen protections for domestic abuse victims, including introducing robust support packages for the victims who leave the perpetrator of the abuse should also be considered to ensure the victims’ mental and physical health does not deteriorate.
