Laura, Jim and Lisa deconstruct the number one Netflix show 'American Murder: The Family Next Door' about the murders of Shanann, Bella, Celeste and Nico Watts committed by husband and father, Chris Watts.

Warning: this is an extremely distressing watch and our breakdown is a tough listen. Unfortunately that's the utterly horrific reality of familicide - or family wipeouts - and there are many myths and misconceptions about family annihilators, which we will unpick across this series.

In this episode Laura and Jim seek to deconstruct what you are seeing on screen as well as identify the key behaviours and warning signs leading up to this catastrophic family wipe out committed by Chris Watts.

Our thoughts are with Shanann's, Bella and Celeste's family and friends.

Jim Clemente, Laura Richards and Lisa Zambetti interview Academy Award nominated Love Fraud filmmakers Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady about how they got involved in the case and what it was like in real time to piece together the investigative series as the case was still unfolding. We discuss the show stopping interview when Heidi and Rachel come face-to-face with the man that they and all the courageous women have been pursuing. You will not want to miss this episode as Jim and Laura forensically and psychologically deconstruct Smith's on-screen behavior.

Laura, Jim and Lisa discuss Richard Scott Smith's ability to manipulate and ingratiate himself into other people's lives, as well as the people he is using to help him hide in plain sight. One of the women we discuss is Lee who firmly believes that Smith is the victim of a "witch hunt." We break down Lee's version of Smith, the mirror it holds up to Smith's behavior and what it reveals. Later in the episode, Jim and Lisa interview the two private investigators who helped track down  Smith.

Laura and Jim analyze Smith's behavioral traits and whether he has changed his modus operandi by targeting a married woman and also discuss the incredible women who are determined to stop Smith in his tracks, including female bounty hunter Carla who takes the case on pro bono to ensure Smith is prevented from harming other women.

Laura, Jim and Lisa deconstruct SHOWTIME® Documentary Series “Love Fraud” by first introducing you to Tracy, Ellen and Sabrina, just some of the women who were targeted by Richard Scott Smith, a man who has dedicated his life to lovebombing, grooming and marrying women whilst simultaneously enabling and stealing their dreams, frequently, they say, leaving them with massive debt.  Jim and Laura discuss Smith's behavior, and more importantly, we discuss how and why Smith keeps getting away with it and whether a group of women - who refuse to be "victims" - can stop him?

Laura, Jim and Lisa continue their interview with Rosie Batty, whose 11 year old son Luke was brutally murdered by his father, Gregg Anderson on February 12 2014.

#CoerciveControl

#DomesticAbuse

Coercive control significantly correlates with femicide and familicide. We must make the non-physical abuse - coercive control - and the abuser visible. We must ensure the perpetrator is held accountable for their behaviour. 

Please sign and share the petition and help us create pressure and momentum so that the government acts now and criminalises coercive control. This will save lives.
