5-Domestic Violence MURDERED: Clare Wood
Have you ever wondered how a policy could make a difference in protecting vulnerable people from domestic violence? This powerful and emotional episode takes you on a heart-wrenching journey through the story of Clare Wood, whose tragic murder by her ex-partner, George Appleton, led to the creation of Clare's Law, also known as the Domestic Violence Disclosure Scheme. Join me as I explore Clare's early life, her relationships, and the tireless efforts of her father, Michael Brown, to bring about change that could save countless lives in the future.
I go beyond the surface to examine the flaws in the system that left Clare in the dark about George's dangerous past and how her father's determination led to the introduction of Clare's Law. Hear the account of discovering Clare's body, the nationwide manhunt for George, and his eventual death by suicide. Learn about the impact this law has had on providing vital information to potential victims and its success in saving lives. This episode is a harrowing reminder of the horrors of domestic violence, and the importance of raising awareness for Clare's Law.
