Today we investigate the landmark case of Kiena Dawes, whose suicide note reading "I was murdered" led to unprecedented manslaughter charges against her abuser. This 2022 case from Lancashire challenges the legal boundaries of criminal responsibility in domestic abuse situations.

In this deeply researched episode, we examine:

• The devastating pattern of coercive control by Ryan Wellings

• Critical police failures that preceded her death

• How her final message became crucial evidence "from beyond the grave"

• Why cases like Kiena's—where an estimated 200 women annually take their lives due to domestic abuse—rarely result in serious charges

Learn why this 2025 trial created a potential turning point for domestic violence jurisprudence and what it means for future victims seeking justice.
