The police reopened the case and the footage is finally being reviewed. This outcome would not be happening without your support. I am staying on them until justice is served.

A few weeks ago I was placed into a state of shock as the result of a young man who came into the store that I worked in and exposed his erection to me. To say I was mortified is an understatement. When speaking to the police, I was further appalled as the police officer I spoke with seemed to have a terribly immature problem with saying the word, 'erection'. I have received endless support from said company, however I have just received a phone call from Hammersmith and Fulham police explaining that this man "had not broken the law" and are therefore unable to press charges, all without even obtaining and viewing the available CCVT footage and without even trying to identify the foul individual who will undoubtedly carry on his campaign to corner women with a predatory intimidation. I have decided to contact my MP but before I do so I would like to ask for support, even if it's just a signature your help and participation would help see this matter to the end it should have.

The momentum here is undeniable. This level of support proves that we will not let this be swept under the rug.

Absolute disgrace that the police are not even looking at the cctv. He will definitely do this again to someone else if he gets away with it now.

This has happened to a colleague of mine recently. Immediate action should be taken by police, no woman should have to put up with this.

Indecent exposure, the question is would you let your little ones have this present around them, I believe you would not. Get this disgusting behaviour off the streets

To see how this incident made Beth feel was quite upsetting. Why this man could befriend and take advantage of Beth's kindness and make her feel so uncomfortable was not acceptable. I helped as much as I could in this incident by trying to ask as many questions as possible, subtily trying to gain as much information on the individual. I hope he felt he couldn't return to the store because of this and so far so good. But this does not mean he wont offend somewhere else, this is an issue that needs to be handled with professionalism and care!

This behaviour is completely inappropriate, and the reaction to it so far is just insulting to this young woman who it happened to.

The incident was sexual harassment and should be treated as such.

This is indecent exposure, so yes it is illegal!
