Police turned me from victim to offender after I reported assault at school

Theo Rose was misled by West Midlands Police into accepting a community resolution for an assault he did not admit to, despite reporting being a victim of an attack at school. The investigation found that Theo might have agreed to the sanction under false pretences and was misinformed about the consequences. The force rescinded the community resolution, but Theo's trust in the police was diminished, highlighting issues with out-of-court disposals and police handling of cases.
