Until violence against women is taken seriously by authorities the deaths will continue.

The inquest into the homicide of Lisa Skidmore concluded recently with the jury returning a narrative conclusion finding multiple failures by the police and the probation services more than minimally contributed to her death.

Lisa died on 24 November 2016, after a man who was under the supervision of the National Probation Service (NPS) entered her home and brutally raped and killed her.
