  • 001: What is FILICIDE?
    In this emotionally intense inaugural episode of 'Voices Against Filicide,' host Hope Hooton introduces the harrowing topic of filicide—the act of a parent killing their own child. As a mother who has personally endured this tragedy, Hope opens the dialogue with real stories and statistics, shedding light on systematic failures that have allowed such grievous acts to occur. She highlights recent cases, shares vital statistics, and calls for urgent systemic reforms, aiming to transform her pain into purpose. Dedicated to her own children, Alec and Lydia, Hope's mission is to spread awareness, educate the public, and advocate for lasting change in the family court system and child protection services.
