Summary

In this Special Report (Part 2 of 3), Laura interviews courageous 17-year-old Georgia Gabriel-Hooper, whose mother, Cheryl Gabriel-Hooper was shot dead in front of her by her former partner Andrew Hooper on January 26 2018. We discuss events leading up to the murder and the red flags which include coercive control, isolation, victim’s fear, separation, rejection, escalation, stalking, threats to kill, access to weapons, child abuse, threats to commit suicide, financial abuse, entitlement, misogyny, finality and serial perpetration. We discuss the many opportunities to intervene and prevent Cheryl’s murder. Georgia is campaigning alongside Laura to ensure serial domestic abusers and stalkers are included on the same national register as sex offenders and terrorists. Please support our campaign by sharing this important episode with family, friends and colleagues and amplify our voices. Please write to your Member of Parliament by April 25 April and ask that they support Motion G1 in the Domestic Abuse Bill. Women and children’s lives depend on it.
