Homophobic, Biphobic and Transphobic Hate Crime - Prosecution Guidance
Introduction
This guidance sets out the factors to be taken into consideration when reviewing cases and prosecuting offences classified as Homophobic, Biphobic or Transphobic Hate Crime. It deals with crimes committed directly against LGBT people, but it should also, where relevant, be read in the context of crimes committed where the suspect has mistakenly identified the victim as belonging to or associating with this group.
Prosecutors are reminded to decipher this guidance with our Public Remark on Prosecuting Homophobic, Biphobic and Transphobic Hate Crime, as it provides greater detail on some of the key areas of policy.
Prosecutors should also familiarise themselves with stirring up hatred on the grounds of sexual orientation, the hate crime material within Prosecution Guidance and the Animosity Crime page on the CPS website. The Trans Equality Statement currently includes guidance on prosecution, community engagement and employment matters.
