Jeannie, aged 15, has recently started going out with James, who is 28. Her parents are very unhappy about the relationship and think she may also be taking drugs. She has failed to attend school today and is picked up by the police in an area of town known for prostitution, in possession of £100 cash and £50-worth of cosmetics. Just as the police are about to drive off, James rushes over, shouting at Jeannie not to talk, and damages the police car with an iron bar. At the police station the custody officer calls Jeannie’s parents, who state that ‘she is no longer our daughter’ and refuse to come to the station. A social worker is called to be with Jeannie and notices injection marks on her arm. Jeannie admits to theft of the cosmetics but denies any knowledge of the money. She has no previous convictions. Initially she claims not to know James, but after a four-hour period of questioning she breaks down and states that he is her pimp, the money is for him, but she is frightened that he will beat her up if he finds out she has told the police. Consider the responsibilities of the social worker called to the station. If the social worker fulfils the role adequately, what changes to the above scenario might occur. What are the options for responding to Jeannie’s situation?
