Domestic Violence & Fraud
An exponentially growing field of crime investigation is intervention order or family violence intervention order.
Unfortunately, many of these cases involving a domestic violence order and or personal safety intervention orders are not being used for their proper purpose as instigated by legislators.
These orders were commonly used to protect men and women who are victims of stalking and harassment.
However, they are now used by mail-order brides/ grooms to apply for these orders to fast-track an Australian citizenship application to secure property rights or to alienate children, mostly from the husband/ father in order to receive maximum Centrelink benefits.[1]
In short, these tortfeasors are committing criminal fraud and fraud in equity.
In Victoria, Australia these are governed by the Family Violence Intervention Order Act 2008 (Victoria) and Personal Safety Intervention Order Act 2010 (Victoria).
This is where one party fraudulently claims another person has committed domestic violence when they have not.
The personal safety intervention order and family violence intervention order "economy" has grown in Australia to a multibillion-dollar fraud.
Without evidence, plaintiffs (tortfeasors) entrap persons, often family members or ex-spouses with bogus claims of domestic violence to manipulate them for financial purposes.
A Magistrate is supposed to approve an order, but a growing number of orders, especially fraudulent ones are being issued by VICPOL and other State Police departments.[2] The public does not know that these state police are legal entities for taxation purposes and receive funding for FVIO applications regardless of whether they later withdraw the matter or are found to be vexatious with no proper basis in the common law.[3] This method of use, is fraud.
Often State Police, and Community Legal and Support Services aid and abet,[4] as they receive government funding for the fake, fraudulent claims they make. They falsify their fraudulent existence and steal money from the public consolidated revenue fund.

Stalking and Harassment
There are a lot of persons stalked and harassed daily. Often by people, they know such as partners, ex-partners, creditors, and even by employees of police and government acting with misconduct.
The elements of stalking include an accused intentionally engaged in a "course of conduct" (Berlyn v Brouskos (2002) 134 A Crim R 111; Nadarajamoorthy v Moreton [2003] VSC 283; Thomas v Campbell (2003) 9 VR 136; R v Hoang (2007) 16 VR 369; R v Anders (2009) 20 VR 596).
On more than one occasion (Gunes v Pearson (1996) 89 A Crim R 297; Berlyn v Brouskos (2002) 134 A Crim R 111; Nadarajamoorthy v Moreton [2003] VSC 283; Thomas v Campbell (2003) 9 VR 136; R v Hoang (2007) 16 VR 369).
Conduct with an "intention", with "knowledge" of causing physical or mental harm to the victim. Including self-harm, or arousing apprehension or fear in the victim for his or her own safety or that of any other person; or knew that engaging in a course of conduct of that kind would be likely to cause such harm, or arouse such apprehension or fear; or the accused must have committed those acts intentionally (R v Anders (2009) 20 VR 596).
