Domestic Abuse - a podcast by BBC Radio 5 live

More than half of all domestic abuse cases investigated by the police result in no action being taken against the offender according to figures obtained by 5 live Investigates. Thirty-three of the forty-three police forces in England and Wales responded to a Freedom of Information request which reveal that 118,000 of the 223,000 domestic abuse cases investigated by those forces went 'undetected.' The programme also has an exclusive report from a pilot scheme in Hampshire where abusers undergo rehabilitation.
