She knew he would come for her. She told the police she was terrified. But no one stopped him.

On March 16, 2018, in St. Leonards, East Sussex, Michelle Savage and her mother, Heather Whitbread, were executed in their own home. The man behind the trigger? Michelle’s ex-husband, Craig Savage—a man she had just escaped. Armed with a stolen semi-automatic rifle, he carried out a brutal act of revenge that could have been prevented.

This isn’t just a story of murder—it’s a story of a system that ignored a woman’s cries for help until it was too late.

Why did no one listen? And how many more will suffer the same fate? Join us as we uncover the chilling case of Craig and Michelle Savage.
