On Wednesday morning, a statewide coalition working to stop domestic violence released its annual homicide report. It names 24 people who were killed last year due to intimate partner abuse in Minnesota, plus three others whose deaths are listed as suspicious.

For more about what these cases reveal about intimate partner violence, MPR News host Nina Moini talks with Nikki Engel, interim co-executive director of Violence Free Minnesota. The group has published a version of this report every year since 1989.

If you or someone you know is in a dangerous situation with a partner, there is a 24-hour statewide domestic and sexual violence hotline. You can call Minnesota Day One at (866) 223-1111 or text (612) 399-9995.
