I went through a particularly traumatic assult 7 years ago. I never reported it. This is something I have regretted for years. It was a life changing experience.
I was hurt physically and also developed PTSD. The person who assaulted me (my partner at the time) faced no consequences and has no remorse. He is still abusing women today. I was not strong at the time of the assault, but I would really like to report it now.
He also assaulted me on other occasions, including breaking my teeth, dislodging my tailbone and hitting me with hard objects (also never reported). I just need him to know that it's not ok and that I didn't just let him get away with it.
The only "evidence" I have left are my psychology records. I had treatment for PTSD about a year after it happened. My psychologist documented some of the details of the assaults.
Do I have any hope for a conviction?
