Not interested in a podcast by a nasty individual.
Thank you for telling these important stories in such a sensitive way. Still so much to be done to stop femicide happening and also improve the experience of family’s who have to go through this.
Thank you team for spotlighting those whose voices haven’t been properly heard by the police, the courts, the media, and for that matter, the public. Podcasts like this open the gates to the reality of domestic abuse that are rarely heard, and definitely misunderstood… x
Essential listening. I went on to read the inquest findings for Holly. They are absolutely devastating. The “response” from police is totally chilling in its inadequacy. They should be ashamed. Thank you Sherele for your important work. Thoughts are with the victims and their families.
Why do you ask your guests the same question they've literally just answered? Are you listening to what they are saying? They're already sharing their most vulnerable moments and you're not acting at all in a trauma informed way. You've done this in several interviews now & it upsets me on your guests behalf. LISTEN TO THEM!
