Woman who accused ex-partner of rape wins appeal against family court judge

[IwantToRetire]

A mother has successfully appealed against a decision made by Family Court Judge Robin Tolson KC, after he allowed her ex-partner - who was being investigated by the police for rape - overnight contact with their three young children.

The father had admitted domestic abuse, including violence and coercive control, and the mother had also claimed he had raped her.
