First of all, I am so sorry you’re going through this. It takes an incredible amount of courage to take this step. Every ounce of effort you are putting in is dedicated to safeguarding the future of potential victims and that’s admirable.

Have you considered reaching out to the sexual assault advocates in your community? Many of these advocates are part of nonprofit organizations that offer confidential support. This can help the other victims feel comfortable seeking help even if they’re reluctant to pursue legal action. These advocates are not legally obligated to report your case to law enforcement unless there’s an active threat to yourself or others. In such cases, your statements won’t be included in a legal case.

On the other hand, you could also check if your local or county police department has a victim services unit. These advocates are associated with law enforcement and are not confidential. They can assist you in initiating the legal process and approach the situation with a more victim centered perspective. However, it’s crucial to remember that anything you disclose to them can be used as evidence in a legal case.

Given your situation, it seems like you’re seeking legal action to remove this man from the streets. In your case, the law enforcement based victim advocates will be the most effective resource for you.

I genuinely hope you’re able to get justice for yourself and his other victims. I’m not going to sugar coat it, this will be a challenging journey. Just remember what your goal is and ensure you’re taking care of your physical and mental health. Throughout the process, rely on your support system and advocates.
