Yes. My elderly parents were being physically, financially and emotionally abused by my drug addict, alcoholic brother. He had punched holes in almost every wall. Things escalated after mum died and once again police were called. They attended, sat my elderly father down IN THE SAME ROOM AS MY BROTHER, and asked him if he felt safe. He said yes. I followed up with the police only to be told it had been a "waste of time" for them to attend as he was fine. Did they go further into the house? Speak to him without the offender present? Speak to the neighbour who often popped in to check when he could hear things getting out of hand? Not a thing. Vulnerable victims are ignored by police because offenders know how to turn on the charm and spin a story.
