Summary

In this episode Laura continues her very real and authentic conversation with Maria Stubbing’s brother, Manuel Fernandez, Bengi Stubbing’s Maria’s son and Celia Peachey, Maria’s daughter. We discuss what it took to challenge the police and the system, the inquest itself and what needs to change. We also talk about trauma recovery and post traumatic growth. You’ll also hear from Bengi. We had another conversation following his trauma related response. He felt he needed to speak again for himself and his mum. That tells you a lot about the man he has become. Please be advised this is not an easy listen but it is an important conversation that we agreed to share. Please support our campaign work to protect women by sharing this important episode with family, friends and colleagues and amplify our voices. Celia has been part of the successful campaign to stop abusive men going from one partner to another. Police, prison and probation services must proactively identify, assess and manage serial domestic abusers and stalkers and ensure that they are included on the same database as sex offenders.

0:00.0	Knowing how badly my mum was let down, not just a catalogue of errors, but huge human
0:08.9	right failings, breaks my heart. It breaks my brother's heart and my uncle's heart,
0:13.9	and that has a knock on effect because I see one of them suffering, knowing that how my
0:18.9	mum was neglected and led to believe that she was going to receive help is just unforgivable.
0:30.0	Hey lovely listeners and welcome back to Crime Analyst and the Intelligence Cell. This
0:43.3	week I'm rejoined by Maria Stubbins' family, Manuel, Bengi and Celia. As always, listener
0:50.7	discretion is advised. These are very real and authentic conversations in the aftermath
0:56.1	of the murder, so please take care. So without further ado, let's jump back into the conversation
1:02.1	where we left off. Everything we're talking about, and I don't know whether you're aware
1:07.2	of this, but there were nine internal reports written in Essex, saying in Essex Police,
1:13.3	I should clarify, saying that domestic abuse callouts had trebled and yet the units were
1:19.7	not being resourced to match that demand. Nine reports after Maria's murder saying that
1:27.1	there needed to be more training, that there needed to be more staffed, and yet a number
1:31.5	of senior officers took the decision time and time again not to change things, not to
1:37.3	resource the units, not to train the staff, and that's why we had murder after murder after
1:44.2	murder, and multiple families who have experienced what you have and trying to get to the truth,
1:50.9	and that's why I do what I do, because if we don't talk about it, external to your experience,
1:57.5	how do people actually who want to change, who want to get better, how do they actually
2:02.0	improve? And what I will say, there are hundreds of thousands of people who listen to Crime
2:07.6	Analysts and they want to get better at what they do, and they use this as part of their
2:11.5	training. So I know that this conversation will have a significant impact on people who
2:16.9	do want to change, and there are many of them within the organisations that we've talked
