This documentary exposes horrific and despicable crimes by men who betray the trust of the #women closest to them.

Women deserve to know the truth and protect themselves.

Congrats Jane on the global reach of In Control. By illuminating the 8-stage #homicide timeline, you provide a vital tool to help #women worldwide recognise how predictable the escalation of male violence can be. In Control will help women spot the danger early & may save many lives #MVAWG #femicide

In Control is definitely going global, it’s now having an Arabic translation to add to Turkish, Russian, Chinese and Dutch

Das Buch "In Control - Dangerous Relationships and How They End in Murder" von Jane Monckton Smith.

Regelmäßig (wenn ich den Kopf dazu habe) lese ich dieses Buch von @jmoncktonsmith.bsky.social. Und jedes Mal möchte ich in die Welt schreien, wie wichtig es ist - und mir ungefähr jeden zweiten Satz markieren, damit ich ihn ja nicht vergesse.

In Control now available in Dutch as well as Chinese, Turkish and Russian

The devil made him do it? For goodness sake 🙄

Madeline Mc Aleer is discussing @jmoncktonsmith.bsky.social’s 8-stage domestic homicide timeline – how a predictable progressive pattern of coercively controlling behaviour can go from #HoneymoonToHomicide. It can happen quickly or take 40 years, and there may or may not be physical violence.

"This bill is going to be the worst thing potentially that we've ever done to domestic abuse victims" ASSISTED Death and Women: Professor Jane Monckton Smith

Mum's tragic last words as abuser cut her throat and tried to sever her head Roann Court shares how scared she feels now her mum’s killer is a free man and heartbreakingly remembers the haunting last words her mum ever said to her

I can’t actually believe this has happened. I met Roann years ago not that long after her mum was murdered. Reading a summary of the story in a news report doesn’t come close to the reality. I thought this govt were serious about MVAWG

Stalking victims to be given right to know abuser's identity - BBC News Victims will be told the identity of online perpetrators at the earliest opportunity, under the new reforms.

This is good news. Unbelievable that a stalker’s ID could be kept from the victim in the first place. However it doesn’t address the major issue of the police not investigating these crimes properly or at all.

A known dangerous repeat offender. They need to be on a register. All new partners warned through Clare’s Law. This was an 8 stages homicide.

A ‘one off’ public event has been organised in Glasgow on 6th December. Would love to meet anyone there!

This simple statement is an uncomfortable truth. The way victims and the bereaved families of victims are treated needs serious attention. I don’t mean using a ‘sympathetic tone’, I mean listening to them as if their testimony is real.
