"Merseyside Police did not inform Semina's school of the reported rape, despite assurances to the family that safeguarding would be in place. This meant she was forced to stay at home as she was not protected from coming into contact with the alleged perpetrator."

""Even though there were videos of [Semina] being beaten up on social media, the police did nothing about it. The officer, the detective, said 'Well, things have quietened down now, so if I go around it might kick off all over again'," Rachel added."

"According to Rachel, the police "tried to justify their actions - or lack of them - by saying Semina wouldn't hand the phone over" and countered this by saying Semina had "offered her phone up several times"."

"Semina's phone was taken by Merseyside Police following her death and is still in the police's possession.

The family has requested that it be returned to them as it contains images and videos of Semina which are not available elsewhere."

Semina Haliwell's grave was also desecrated. Massive failure from the police and I hope the inquiry will find out what exactly happened. The inquest will be from Jan 13 to 21.
