Who protects women when the very systems that are supposed to protect them, like the police and the broader legal system, refuse to, or even worse, are causing the harm in the first place? This episode's guest has been fighting against the systemic challenges women face in securing justice for decades. And she has some extraordinary stories to tell. Join The Hearing host Yasmin Sheikh as she sits down with Harriet Wistrich, a human rights lawyer, founder of the Centre for Women's Justice (https://www.centreforwomensjustice.org.uk/), and author of "Sister in Law" (https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/455720/sister-in-law-by-wistrich-harriet/9781804995990). Dive into Harriet's compelling journey from activism to law, driven by her passion for women's rights and justice. Discover the groundbreaking cases she's championed, including the landmark Sally Challen case that reshaped the understanding of coercive control and the John Warboys case, which highlighted some of the headwinds women face when they do come forward to seek justice for crimes against them. In addition, she discusses astonishing undercover police operations that infiltrated activist groups, often using women as a means to an end. Wistrich weaves personal stories into a discussion about broader societal implications. This episode is a powerful exploration of systemic challenges and the relentless pursuit of justice. Don't miss this inspiring conversation - or Harriet's amazing book!

Laura and Hazel discuss Ryan Murphy's Monsters scripted show on Netflix including the portrayal of Leslie Abramson and whether a female juror from the first trial told Leslie that the men voted for murder because they didn't like her.  Laura and Hazel also focus on what it meant to be a Menendez and why Erik and Lyle could not just leave, applying the lens of coercive control.   Whilst debating the potential resentencing of both Lyle and Erik, Laura outlines Sally Challen's case in the UK where the 2015 coercive control law played a role in changing her murder conviction to manslaughter, leading to her release from prison. Could the same happen for Lyle and Erik?   For more in-depth conversations, extra episodes and an opportunity to be part of the Ringleader monthly Happy Hour, join the Crime Analyst Squad: www.patreon.com/CrimeAnalyst   #MenendezMurders #MenendezBrothers #Netflix #LyleMenendez #ErikMenendez #Menudo #LeslieAbramson #CrimeAnalyst #TrueCrime #Podcast #DomesticAbuse #CoerciveControl #SallyChallen Clips https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-menendez-brothers-the-official-companion-podcast/id1375339408?i=1000672327879   Sources Crime Analyst Menendez Series Case 7 https://www.crime-analyst.com/p/case-007-the-menendez-murders/ https://www.amazon.com/Hung-Jury-Diary-Menendez-Juror/dp/1631681621  http://menendezmurders.com/about-robert-rand/ https://www.courttv.com/trials/ca-v-menendez-1993/ https://www.amazon.com/Menendez-Murders-Updated-Shocking-Killings/dp/1637745974 https://www.peacocktv.com/watch-online/tv/menendez--menudo-boys-betrayed/8222254554603265112/seasons/1 https://www.newyorker.com/culture/on-television/ryan-murphys-latest-era-of-cynical-hits https://da.lacounty.gov/media/news/gascon-provides-update-menendez-brothers con-provides-update-menendez-brothers https://www.thewrap.com/dominick-dunne-erik-lyle-menendez-brothers-gay/ https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/erik-menendez-slams-ryan-murphy-monsters-dishonest-portrayal-1236008627/ https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/ryan-murphy-monsters-menendez-reaction-thrilled-1236019251/ https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/menendez-brothers-monsters-ryan-murphy-kim-kardashian-1236024160/   REGISTER For Laura's 2024 Masterclasses: https://shoutout.wix.com/so/b4P5SKknQ?languageTag=en®ion=d05bd898-376e-4b0e-a40c-bf52dec282ef   More Training Info: www.dashriskchecklist.com www.thelaurarichards.com   YouTube, Socials and Website YouTube @crimeanalyst Facebook Crime Analyst Podcast Instagram @crimeanalyst @laurarichards999 Threads @crimeanalyst X @thecrimeanalyst @laurarichards999 TikTok @crimeanalystpod Website www.crime-analyst.com Leave a Review https://www.crime-analyst.com/reviews/new/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Lawyer Harriet Wistrich is the founder and director of Centre for Women's Justice. She joins Anita Rani to talk about her new book, Sister in Law, which looks into 10 of her hard-won cases over 30 years. They include Sally Challen's appeal against her conviction for the murder of her husband, the victims of the taxi driver John Worboys, and the women caught up in the 'Spy Cops' scandal. Cases that she says demonstrate that "terrifyingly often, the law is not fit-for-purpose for half the population".Boris Johnson's son Wilf's fourth birthday party has been gaining attention online, after pictures were shared on social media of his celebration featuring a monster truck bouncy castle with separate ball pit, and a bespoke balloon display.

Journalist Anna Tyzack, who wrote an article about this very subject in the i newspaper, and one half of the comedy duo Scummy Mummies, Helen Thorn, join Anita to discuss.

En lördag i augusti 2010 mördade 56-åriga Sally Challen sin 61-årige make Richard Challen genom att slå honom i huvudet med en hammare närmare 20 gånger medan han satt och åt vid matbordet i familjens bostad i Surrey strax utanför London. Under den följande rättegången målades en bild upp av Sally som en svartsjuk och kontrollerande fru som till slut fick nog av Richards otrohetsaffärer och därför valde att mörda honom. År 2019 blev det dock tydligt att långt ifrån hela sanningen hade kommit fram och Sally Challen lyckades till slut överklaga sin tidigare morddom och få möjligheten att berätta sin historia i ett helt nytt ljus.Information från 1177 om våld i nära relationer:https://www.1177.se/liv--halsa/vald-overgrepp-och-sexuella-trakasserier/att-bli-utsatt-for-vald-i-nara-relationer/Mer information om "Coercive Control":https://www.womensaid.org.uk/information-support/what-is-domestic-abuse/coercive-control/Mer information om "Gaslighting":https://nathatshjalpen.se/a/gaslighting-lyssna-hord/Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/rysarpodden/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/rysarpoddenMail:rysarpodden@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Hey there Twisted Listeners! This week we're talking about women who 'snapped' before killing - at least, that's how they are portrayed in the media. In all honesty, these are some of the morally murkiest cases we've ever covered, and many have us rethinking the idea of self defense. We have teens to kill their abusers, moms protecting their children, but also a few less murky cases, like a grocery store clerk gone wild!

Livvy Haydock investigates whether women are being unfairly treated by the criminal justice system when coercive and controlling behaviour by a partner is behind their offences. Six years ago, the UK led the world in making coercive and controlling behaviour a crime. In a 2019 landmark judgement, Sally Challen's murder conviction was quashed when the Court of Appeal ruled that years of abuse had contributed to her murdering her husband. But has the criminal justice system really evolved enough to recognise the complex relationship between prolonged abuse and violent crime by women?

RESPECT, is the new Aretha Franklin biopic which will be released this Friday. Aretha Franklin handpicked the Oscar Award winning actress and singer Jennifer Hudson to play her in the film. Jennifer talks to us about her relationship with Aretha, their parallel life stories, their grounding in gospel music and the guiding force of the women in their lives. The government has announced plans to reform the way social care is funded in England. National Insurance contributions from your wage packet will increase. But it also means that some older people who need to go into a nursing home won't have to sell their own home. Boris Johnson said the tax increase would raise £36 billion for frontline services in the next three years and be the "biggest catch-up programme in the NHS' history". But he also accepted it broke a manifesto pledge. Camilla Cavendish, former Director of Policy for Prime Minister David Cameron, joins Emma. Last year she was asked by Downing Street to write a report on the future of health and social care reform. Julie Bindel has been a radical feminist for over four decades, joining the women's movement as a working class lesbian teenager from the North East. She has campaigned and written many books about male violence, pornography, and the global sex trade. She is also co-founder of the law reform group Justice for Women, helping women who have been prosecuted for assaulting or killing violent male partners, including Sally Challen who with their support won her appeal against her murder conviction in 2019. Julie is no stranger to controversy. Her beliefs that there is a clash between women's rights and trans rights, and that sex work is not work, have led to her being un-invited from speaking at several universities, and to frequent protests at events where she does speak. For her new book Feminism for Women: The Real Route to Liberation, Julie interviewed 50 young women, she says in an attempt to build a bridge between them and the so-called Second Wave feminists of her generation, which she thinks is urgently needed to tackle a misogynist backlash. Elizabeth Lishmund is the creator of a new upcoming film - 'Fighting Girlfriend' - which tells the true story of Mariya Oktyabrsykaya - a Tank Commander in the Red Army during World War 2. 900,000 Russian women fought on the front line for the Soviet Union. Why do we know so little about women's active roles during WW2? And do stereotypes around Russian women make an impact? Elizabeth and journalist Viv Groskop join us to discuss.

Laura interviews award winning Australian author and investigative journalist Jess Hill. Jess wrote the book ‘See What You Made Me Do' which has been made into a three-part docuseries of the same title.

Excellent interview with Evan Stark Ph.D, MSW is a sociologist, forensic social worker, widely published author and researcher with an international reputation for his innovative work on the legal, policy and health dimensions of interpersonal violence, including its effects on children. Dr. Stark's award winning book, Coercive Control: The Entrapment of Women in Personal Life (Oxford 2007) has played a major role in redefining domestic violence internationally and is one basis for new offense of "coercive and controlling behavior," in the England, Scotland, Ireland and Australia and elsewhere. A co-founder of an early shelter for battered women in New Haven and co-director of the path-breaking Yale Trauma Studies, he has held numerous state and federal appointments related to domestic violence. Dr. Stark also has served as an expert in more than 100 criminal, family, civil and child welfare cases throughout the US and in Canada as well as providing evidence in the Sally Challen case before the Royal High Court of Appeals in London. Dr. Stark explains that "domestic violence" is neither primarily domestic nor necessarily violent, but a pattern of controlling behaviors more akin to terrorism and hostage-taking. Dr. Stark draws on court records, interviews and FBI statistics while detailing coercive strategies that men (and women) use to deny women their very personhood from using micromanaging their dress code, speech and sexual activity. This is a livery crime rather than a crime of assault. Coming out with not only a new addition to Coercive Control, his next book will be focusing on children. dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.com music provided by: mictechmusic@yahoo.com https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri

What is coercive control? What did Sally Challen and David Challen say about their experiences of their landmark campaign referencing the existence of coercive control in her relationship with her husband? How can we do more to support those who come forward when they identify themselves as having been in coervicely controlling relationships? What more can the criminal justice system do? How can we improve our society to stamp out such coervicely controlling relationship?

Scott, Hayley and Nihal review Elizabeth is Missing (BBC One) and The Case of Sally Challen (BBC Two). Plus we chat to Rick Edwards about The Edge of Science. Also today – how The Grand Tour has adapted because of the way we watch it. What does this mean for the future of TV – are shows going to be ‘made by numbers’? Scott reveals he’s going to Iceland for Christmas and Nihal gets confused. The Golden Globe nominations are out and it seems Scott’s campaign for The Morning Show to get recognised for being amazing but terrible. And universally appreciated Succession is also in there. Game of Thrones is not. Hayley gets annoyed because Scott made her watch a Christmas show that she really doesn’t like – and then we run out of time to review it. Don’t worry, we’ll do it next week.

On Saturday, August 14th, 2010 Sally Challen was with her husband Richard packing up their family home in Claygate Surrey England. The couple had been married for thirty-one years and were preparing to rent out the house so they could embark on a six-month adventure in Australia. That is, until later that afternoon, when Sally made a startling discovery.

The sentence was reduced to 18 years but in June of this year she walked out of the Old Bailey a free woman. The introduction of coercive control as a crime meant her sentence was reduced to manslaughter.

Harriet Wistrich is a human rights lawyer and founder and director of the Centre for Women's Justice. Her cases are consistently in the news – the fight to keep the so-called ‘black cab rapist’, John Worboys in prison and the release of Sally Challen, who had been imprisoned for the murder of her abusive husband. As part of our Takeover week Harriet discusses surviving a disabled sibling, her admiration for Claudia Clare a ‘subversive ceramicist’, the treatment of women accused of lying about a rape allegation, and why Zem Zem Mohammed, an Eritrean refugee, is someone she holds in great esteem. She may not be a household name but we know her cases well. How does a feminist lawyer relax who works tirelessly for the good of women she believes are being mistreated by the criminal justice system? And what compels her to continue to seek justice? When Harriet Wistrich was just eleven years old her disabled brother, Matthew, died. It was the 1960’s and a time when disabled people were institutionalised, shut away and not spoken about. She speaks to her friend’s daughter, Atiha Sen Gupta, a playwright, who also lost a disabled brother, Nihal, in 2001 when he was 17 and she was 13. What did their different experiences of loss highlight for Harriet in terms of grief, guilt and how society's attitudes to disability changed in that 30 years? As a human rights lawyer Harriet’s focus is on the treatment of women in the criminal justice system. What happens to women who have alleged rape and who then find themselves charged with perverting the course of justice when it’s suspected they have lied? She discusses how the system needs to change with Gillian Jones QC who worked on the case of Jemma Beale. Zem Zem Mohammed escaped Eritrea at the age of 18 and spent five traumatic years crossing the Sahara to Sudan and then to Libya and to the UK to claim asylum via Italy and Malta. Now 37, settled with her husband and two children, she works as a Health and Safety inspector on the railways at nights wearing a hard hat over her hijab. Her extraordinarily resilience and entrepreneurial spirit was something Harriet Wistrich wanted to celebrate as part of her Woman’s Hour takeover Claudia Clare is an artist who uses her ceramics to record and celebrate stories of feminist activism. We find out why she thinks ceramics are the best way to be what she says is subversive.

One Saturday morning in November 2010 Sally Challen walked into the kitchen and hit her husband Richard in the head with a hammer. She hit him over 20 times. In the trial that followed Sally was painted as a possessive, jealous woman who murdered her husband in cold-blood. This year, in 2019, Sally won a land mark appeal to have her conviction overturned as a fresh defence was shaped around her mental state owing to the years of emotional and psychological abuse she had suffered at the hands of her husband. https://www.crimeandinvestigation.co.uk/article/she-killed-her-husband-but-sally-challen-might-be-the-real-victimhttps://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/uk-news/2018/sep/29/devoted-wife-who-killed-husband-with-hammer-sally-challenhttps://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/sally-challen-appeal-husband-killed-david-court-a8799681.html%3famp See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

The actress Amanda Abbington, who's well-known for her part in Sherlock, is now in a harrowing new play about teenage depression. It's called The Son and has just opened at the Kiln Theatre in North London. It's about 16 year old Nicolas who is going through a difficult time after his parents' divorce. He misses school, lies and self-harms. Amanda plays his mother and joins us in the studio. Also with us is Dr Bernadka Dubicka, Chair of the Faculty of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry from Royal College of Psychiatrists. She talks to us about some of the important themes in the play.We speak to Harriet Wistrich, the lawyer of Sally Challen, the woman in prison for killing her husband. Yesterday her murder conviction was quashed by the Court of Appeal. She now faces a retrial.

Asma Khan calls herself a "house cook" but she's set up a central London restaurant which is completely run by women. Her rotas are made up of four hour shifts so her staff can combine work with family commitments. It just makes sense she says and helps women enter the workplace. Asma's new cookery book is a bestseller on Amazon. She joins us to talk about food, work and family. More ‘Bump, Birth and Beyond'. We catch up once more with our group of listeners who are telling us about their new babies. They're now one years old.

Laura Richards talks with special guest David Challen, the son of Sally Challen, who is currently in prison serving an 18 year sentence for the murder of Richard Challen in 2011.During her trial jurors were told that she attacked him with a hammer whilst he ate his lunch at the kitchen table of the former marital home.David is leading the charge to free his mother from prison and tells Laura about what it was like growing up at home and what his mother and father's relationship was really like behind closed doors.Since Sally's conviction, the concept of coercive control has been introduced into law following the successful Domestic Violence Law Reform Campaign spearheaded byLaura Richards in partnership with Women's Aid and Sara Charlton Charitable Foundation.
