Real Crime Profile

Laura, Jim and Lisa interview Rosie Batty, who became an advocate and campaigner in the wake of her 11 year old son Luke's brutal murder by his father on a cricket pitch on February 12 2014 in Australia.

Rosie had suffered years of family violence, and had had intervention and custody orders in place in an effort to protect herself and her son.

#CoerciveControl

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.

Laura, Jim and Lisa interview Australian investigative journalist and award winning author Jess Hill about her book 'See What You Made Me Do.'

In this episode, we discuss Luke Batty's case which was the starting point for Jess to write the book and the coercive control law Laura successfully campaigned for in England and Wales. Jess deconstructs Albert Biderman's model of coercion used on prisoners of war in North Korea and we talk about how these are the same tactics that are used by what Laura calls 'domestic terrorists' all across the world, as well as unpick how women feel compelled the 'fix' the relationship and the perpetrator.
