Emily says she's a victim of domestic violence, but has struggled to feel heard by police and the courts

A Tasmanian woman who alleges she is a victim of domestic violence says she feels "gaslit" by the state's justice system after senior police downplayed her claims as "a family quibble" and a magistrate called them a "tenuous thread of allegations".

Emily is speaking out because she believes women across the state are dealing with a "broken system" that "protects perpetrators and re-victimises victims".
