Criminal punishment to fit the crime in domestic violence cases.

The Issue

I am a survivor of domestic violence and i recognise that many are not fortunate to live to tell their own tale.

In particular, Natalie Connolly, the 26-year old victim whom lost her life following a violent attack carried out by her partner,  John Broadhurst.

His defence was exclaimed to have been "rough sex" that caused her demise.

During their encounter of "rough sex", Natalie was reported to have suffered 40 different injuries that led to her bleeding to death at the bottom of their stairs. Not only did she endure these injuries but she was also sprayed with bleach in her face, all in the name of consensual sex???

Despite the evidence presented to the court and jury, it was allegedly the decision of the CPS to reduce the sentence of this crime from murder to manslaughter!?!

Please, please join me in my appeal to the attorney general to review this sentence so that justice is served and that the punishment matches the crime.

Thank you xx
