12yr Autistic Girl Commits Suicide After Police Discourage Her From Pressing Rape Charges

The mother of a schoolgirl who killed herself after police discouraged her from pressing rape charges has released her daughter's heartbreaking last photograph.

Semina Halliwell, 12, from Southport, Merseyside, was allegedly raped by an older boy after being groomed over Snapchat before her death on June 12 last year.

The Year 7 pupil, who had autism, broke down when informing her mother Rachel of the horrific ordeal following a self-harm incident.

However, family members have claimed she was told by detectives she would not 'want this thing hanging over her head' as her case 'wouldn't go to court for 18 months to two years'.

Rachel has since shared the last picture of Semina taken four days before she passed away as she sat propped up in a hospital bed with bruising and cuts around her face.


The family say Semina was 'made to feel like she was an inconvenience' to Merseyside Police and no charges were brought against the alleged offender - whom she had named.

Semina's mother and aunt, Clare, said the lead detective investigating her allegations instead 'sat there and started talking about all the forms he'd have to fill in if she made the complaint' and the length of time it would take him.

The detective is also said to have told the family that it would be 'your word against his', with relatives later telling Sky News that the force did not inform her school of the alleged incident - despite assurances that safeguarding would be put in place.

Before I say this, I am in no way blaming the child! But why does a TWELVE year old need the Cleopatra eyes? No, that doesn't give a man the right to do what they did to her. But doesn't it invite intrigue and unwanted attention? I wouldn't be letting a twelve year old of mine outside with those eyes. At twelve, a girl needs some tinted lip gloss at best! Maybe mascara and some neutral lipstick at 14, full on make-up is for 16 and up in my book. And my Mom let me wear full make-up at 14. I just hate the stuff and never wore it past Freshman year. :shame:
 
This is so sad.
It is fucking heartbreaking that she felt so alone; and like such an inconvenience- while having just been groomed and raped- that the only peace she could see, was taking her own life. Taking her own life before she even experienced really living..
12. She was 12.

Fuck those detectives for not being disgusted and angry and wanting someone to pay dearly. Fuck them for not wanting to do the extra "paperwork" and seek justice for her? Or maybe, prevent it from happening to another little girl?

Jesus Christ. Where is the outrage for what was done to her?? and why are these "detectives" in a position like this when they clearly don't even give a fuck enough to even do the paperwork. Let alone investigate..

Please, tell me how does one listen to and observe this broken little girl recount the horror she endured, while discouraging her from pressing charges, and literally dismissing her trauma, and what she endured TO HER POOR SWEET FACE, even?

Her whole life just gone in an instant. This makes me feel all kinds of ways.

Look at her eyes. That thick black line around her eyes is eyeliner. The mascara is fairly thick too. There's a trace of, or very light, eyeshadow too. The rest of her face looks to be totally makeup free. ;)

LONG time lurker, but had to register to respond to you. At first I thought makeup, then I thought, nah, can't be, she just had naturally long eyelashes, etc. I googled her; there are some very questionable photos of her.
 
She's def wearing heavy makeup in a lot of the photos of her. Which I guess is kinda weird to me for her age but not exactly a big deal. Girls like to play with makeup. Eventually they tone down how heavy it appears. Or most do.

I also googled her and saw that she wasn't just raped and ignored by the cops. She was harassed. Beaten up at least twice. And no one did shit to help her. People even threaten online to trash her grave. She can't even rest in peace.

Now it's on the news so maybe some kind of action will happen. But it can never be enough. Everyone who harassed her, everyone who assaulted her, all the cops who brushed her off need to be charged. Names made public forever. This is when cancel culture would be a good thing.
 
Something similar happened to my friend. A man drugged her, beat her, raped her and robbed her. She went the the hospital immediately, a rape kit and drug test was performed. An NYPD officer told her not to file a report because she couldn’t prove that she didn’t take the drugs herself, consent to rough sex and lose her belongings. She was a drug and alcohol counselor who worked for adult social services. She quit her job, gained 100lbs and never leaves her house. That was about 6 years ago. She didn’t commit suicide but she definitely doesn’t seem to be living. Heartbreaking.

Also in this photo she’s not wearing a lot of makeup. I am a bit of a makeup expert and if she had had on a lot of eyeliner it would’ve been smeared. You can tell she’s been crying or at least her eyes watering. It would’ve been smeared everywhere waterproof or not. I see a girl with what looks like dirt or possibly charcoal from a stomach pump on her forehead, but not around her eyes. She does have very long lashes, which could either be natural, glued on falsies or eyelash extensions.

I kind of feel bad now. I wasn't trying to shame the girl. It was more along the lines of "where are her parents!" then anything else. Back when I was 12 (1982-1983), so eons ago, parents were judged by what their children did/said/wore in public. I had to be aware of this at all times at that age because we were living overseas, representing America, and you DID NOT embarrass your parents/country that way. My Mom would have taken a brillo pad to my face if I had tried to wear eyeliner that heavy at 12. Sometimes I get shocked that there aren't more parents like that out there.

Plus, in my experience, only dudes get the beautiful eyes with the killer eyelashes... Like my nephew, the little shit. He has perfectly beautiful gray eyes with long, thick, properly curled naturally, Middle Eastern eyelashes...
 
Back to the main point though. Yes, at some point a lawyer would need to explain to her and her family that it would come down to a "she said/he said" issue in court. It is not a conversation that should have happened with anyone in LE. Their job is not to provide legal advice.

I agree, and that's what I was trying to imply too. I should have just said it, but didn't want to make a bad first impression.

Most of the photos online are photoshopped, full face of makeup, duckface and one semi seductive. It's unfortunate we live in a world with pedos online looking for photos exactly like this: sexualized "little" girls. What I'm pointing out has nothing to do with her being brutally assaulted, and of course, no boy, girl, woman or man deserves it regardless of how they present themselves but it does make me wonder why her parents would allow photos of a 12yo (and younger) online like that knowing what we all know today.

Before I start, Im not condoning what happened. I've been through it and had the same reactions but Im coming at this from a legal stand point. Its not the cops job to provide legal advice, it is however their job to determine if they can substantiate a case with enough evidence to go to court. You cant choose to charge anyone you please. The police have to bring the charges. If they cannot prove it, they cant lay charges. You wont even get to the point you have a lawyer.

That is how the legal system works and although its not always fair, almost all rapes come down to he said/she said. From a legal stance, they couldnt tell the school or publicly shame the boy..not until they can prove he did anything.

What I dont understand is how her parents tried to make her go back to the same school the alleged rapist goes to. Or how she tried to commit suicide 4 days prior to her doing it again, in the same method she used to ultimately go through with it, and no one around her seemed worried to hear her say "I've had enough of this". Four days after having your stomach pumped from a suicide attempt..that girl should have been in the mental ward at the hospital or in some other youth help group. She shouldnt have been at home until people were 100% sure she wasnt going to do it again any time soon.

There are a ton of videos and photos of her floating around. Shes definitely got fake lashes on in this one. Shes also got a pierced belly button and most of the videos include her doing things no 12 year old should do. If you look at pictures of her mom and her surroundings, its fairly easy to come to the conclusion that mommy's too rich and interested in herself to care about anyone but herself. Take the picture in the article, the aunt is full on bawling and moms sitting there look like Madonna. One of the quotes the mom said really stuck out for me. She blamed law enforcement for 'not making her feel like someone cared'. This might sound brutal but thats her job, not the cops. Where was mom while her daughter was going through all this? Her mom didnt even know she was being bullied and physically attacked until after she died. This girl was failed by everyone around her. Including mom.
