Summary

Amy Lee Wensley died on 26 June 2014 at her home as a result of a shotgun injury to her head.  She was 24 years old. She put her two girls in a car after being assaulted by her ex, David Simmons, went into the house to get something and never came out.  Within minutes, the detectives who attended declared Amy’s death a suicide.  Anna Davey, Amy’s aunt, believed it was murder and has been fighting for justice for 11 years. Join Laura as she interviews Anna about the red flags, the unanswered questions and their fight for justice for Amy and her children.  Laura highlights the high-risk factors of coercive control and domestic abuse and the indicators that predict domestic violence-related staged suicide scenes.
