Quote: Ferocious Aardvark "TBF the CPS will only "try to bring the case to court" if after due investigation, there is one. Only if they decide there is a reasonable prospect of conviction do they go on to charge, and domestic assault is no different.'"
Yes, but very often in domestic violense cases there is only a reasonable prospect of conviction if the complainant is prepared to give evidence. Something that the CPS will only know for sure on the day of the trial.
