Abstract

This chapter explores the dimensions of abuse inflicted by women, specifically mothers, mothers-in-law and sisters. Abuse is categorised into six themes: violence; violence due to pregnancy; hard and soft psychological abuse; ostracism of victims; women being complicit and turning a “blind eye” to violence. Aplin establishes that mothers play a fundamental role in HBA perpetration. Despite violent acts by women being uncommon, mothers inflict 71.5% (10/14) of the acts of violence. A third of specialist police officers (5/15) had never investigated female perpetrators. Findings show officers failing to record female perpetration in 12% of cases. The extent to which women act under duress or are willing participants in abusing other women is examined. The chapter reconsiders whether professionals should automatically trust mothers to safeguard children.

DASH is a risk identification, assessment and management model adopted by United Kingdom police forces and partner agencies in March 2009 and accredited by the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) council (now NPCC). It is intended to cover cases of Domestic Abuse, Stalking, Harassment and Honour-based violence (DASH 2009). The DASH checklist comprises of 27 questions and provides staff with a practical tool to assist in the early risk identification and decide on the appropriate level of intervention for victims (high, medium, standard risk). There are an additional 10 questions specific to HBA.

Cases 5, 65, 67, 69, 70, 83, 87, 89, 95 and 100.

An “Osman warning” is given by police officers to intended victims to warn them of a threat to their life. This is derived from the case of R v. Osman 2000 in which the ECHR ruled that public bodies, such as the police, are under a positive obligation to take preventative operational measures to protect an individual when there is real and immediate risk to life from the criminal acts of others.
 
8
There was one case where the husband slapped his pregnant wife across the face, causing swelling and bruising to the eye (case 9). However, the pregnancy itself was not the trigger for the HBA.
