Details
Domestic homicide reviews are done when the death of a person aged 16 or over has, or appears to have, resulted from violence, abuse or neglect by:
a relative
a spouse, partner or ex-partner
a member of the same household
They are not about who is culpable. They are to:
help identify lessons we can learn from the death
prevent further domestic abuse
improve services for victims of domestic abuse
These documents analyse domestic homicide reviews and summarise their recommendations.
