Abstract
Drawing on a qualitative study conducted with both individuals who have been shunned from the Jehovah’s Witness community, as well as those who were in a position to shun others. This article identifies areas of development within the Serious Crime Act 2015, proposing that there is scope to broadly interpret the Act to include instances of people shunned from the Jehovah’s Witness community.
