Proposed Law Reforms Threaten Justice for Abused Women

Advocates warn that new measures making unlawful killing verdicts harder will protect abusive men who drive women to suicide.

Proposed legal changes could make it significantly more difficult to hold abusive men accountable for driving women to suicide, according to justice advocates. The new measures aim to make it harder for coroners' inquests to issue verdicts of unlawful killing, a crucial step in securing justice for women who have taken their own lives after suffering abuse.
