Summary

Far from home she died. A young woman who spent the final years of her life living in terror. Her name is Molly Jane Wilkes. She was only 22. For every one woman I document as having been killed by their former or current partner, another 10 women will die by suicide following domestic violence. Yet, domestic violence related suicide flies under the radar. Molly is one of these women. Since her death almost four years ago, Molly's mum Julie has relentlessly lobbied to close a loophole that made Molly's death even more hard to navigate. Today, Julie speaks about her daughter and her legacy. This episodes discusses domestic violence and suicide. It is not for children. This is Molly's story. This season of She Matters is supported by Verve Super , committed to women’s financial security and standing against violence in all its forms. She Matters is also proudly supported by Your One and Only and UNTMD Media.
