In this series we tell the shocking stories of women whose possible homicides go unrecognised, and uncounted, by police. In the UK, we’re told that two women a week are killed by a current or former partner – but these are just the killings we know about. The true toll could be much, much higher. In Hidden Homicides, investigative reporter Louise Tickle uncovers harrowing cases of killers missed, of grieving families ignored by police, of a body left to decay in a hospital morgue, and of systemic police failings. It is produced by Tortoise Studios. To learn more, go to tortoisemedia.com/hiddenhomicides.

Well done
Very well done. A personal note my mother was a social worker for Chicago’s county 20+ years - she started the domestic violence unit in the 90s - it hadn’t existed before that. I’m praying for these families and all families that are affected by domestic violence. Thank you for advocating for them, for us
