In this powerful episode of the Pocket Sergeant Podcast, Paul Cooper is joined by leading criminologist and former police officer Professor Jane Monckton Smith, whose ground-breaking work on homicide timelines is transforming how the criminal justice system approaches domestic abuse and coercive control.
Drawing from years of research, frontline policing, and academic study, Jane breaks down the 8-stage homicide timeline she developed—used across the UK and internationally to identify danger signs, protect victims, and prevent murders. She discusses the chilling patterns that repeat across domestic homicides, the systemic failures in police training, and why many victims never get the protection they urgently need.
Jane also shares harrowing real-world examples, the limitations of protective orders, and how policing and society must change to better respond to victims of domestic abuse.
