Laura, Jim and Lisa interview Rosie Batty, who became an advocate and campaigner in the wake of her 11 year old son Luke's brutal murder by his father on a cricket pitch on February 12 2014 in Australia.Rosie had suffered years of family violence, and had had intervention and custody orders in place in an effort to protect herself and her son. #HIsNameWasLukeBatty#DomesticAbuse#ChildAbuse#CoerciveControlCoercive control significantly correlates with femicide and familicide. We must make the non-physical abuse - coercive control - and the abuser visible. We must ensure the perpetrator is held accountable for their behaviour. Please sign and share the petition and help us create pressure and momentum so that the government acts now and criminalises coercive control. This will save lives.#HerNameWasHannah #HerNameWasAaliyah#HerNameWasLaianah #HisNameWasTreyhttps://www.change.org/p/premier-annastacia-palaszczuk-criminalise-coercive-control-in-australia?recruiter=154725120&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=share_petition&recruited_by_id=5e1da672-5e39-474c-8637-eb3d415ddc29If you are experiencing domestic abuse, stalking and/or harassment and/or honour based abuse from someone you know, please do not suffer in silence.
