In 2012, the murder of Natalie Esack sent shockwaves through the Kent town of Ashford. A talented hairdresser with a bright future, Natalie had reported her estranged husband’s abusive and threatening behaviour to the police multiple times, though each case went unprosecuted. Tragically, those warnings were left unaddressed, and in a brutal act of violence, her life was cut short in her own salon. Natalie’s story is a stark reminder of the dangers that can persist behind closed doors and the devastating consequences when cries for help are not fully heard.
