Episode 104: Isabella Kerr & Mary Jane RogersonThis week Joannagh tells us of the tragic murders of Isabella Kerr and Mary Jane Rogerson; two women who died at the hands of a jealous, possessive, deeply insecure man, whose continued unspiralling behaviour - left unchecked - led to the ultimate crime. We hear about the comprehensive and thorough police investigation, and the several ground breaking techniques established during the intensive investigation which would change the approach to policing and forensics forever.Joannagh and Emma also discuss the attitudes of the time, where domestic abuse was not viewed through the same lens, and recount some of their own experiences of domestic abuse.
