If they tell you they’re being stalked, believe them.
That’s the message from someone who works for a local social agency that cares for women in crisis, as well as a criminal lawyer whose files include cases of stalking. But it can be a complex issue – especially with how the legal system can act on it.
Alisha Fisher, community services manager with Women’s Resources, describes how stalking affects its victims – emotionally, financially and in terms of their own safety.
Lawyer Alex McLeod explains how the legal system works to protect those victims, and sets boundaries for those accused of it.
And lawyer Karissa Ward tells us why Wards Lawyers lends much support to Women’s Resources.
This episode deals with sensitive subject matter. Please take care when listening.
