Heart breaking

I have now listened to all 8 episodes having been alerted to this case via The Crime Analyst podcast of Laura Richards.
It’s been shocking and heart breaking to listen to the impact and devastation one person can have on her husband and his first family. Total disregard for everyone. Well done to Kerri for all her work in this long long battle to get justice for her father and others in the same situation.
