THE REAL PRIME SUSPECT  Breaking Ceilings and Leading the Trail: An Interview with Jackie Malton In this episode, female law enforcement trailblazer, Jackie Malton - the real-life inspiration behind DCI Jane Tennison from the Prime Suspect series - joins the hosts of 'Stop the Killing'. Jackie recounts her journey as an openly gay woman detective in the 70s, 80s, and 90s in the male-dominated UK police service. She shares how she shattered glass ceilings, serving in the formidable flying squad, murder squad, and fraud squad, while simultaneously combating stigma and sexism. Jackie also played a pivotal role as a whistleblower against police corruption in the 1980s. Having battled alcohol addiction and emerging stronger, Jackie dedicated herself to working in prisons, helping inmates reform, and reconnect with their humanity. She has authored a book, 'The Real Prime Suspect', sharing more about her experiences. 00:25 Introduction and Guest Introduction 01:42 Getting to Know Jackie Molten 02:14 Discussing Jackie's Book 05:04 Jackie's Journey to Becoming the Real Prime Suspect 07:03 Challenges Faced by Women in Law Enforcement 08:25 Jackie's Experiences with Misogyny in the Force 20:18 Confronting Past Misogynists 27:24 Jackie's Work in Prisons 32:20 Conclusion and Where to Find More About Jackie WANT THE VIDEOS HEAD TO YOUTUBE @sarahferrismedia  And if you are wanting AD FREE | EARLY ACCESS | BONUS CONTENT  HIT THE BANNER ON APPLE PODCASTS TO SUBSCRIBE OR SUPPORT US: Patreon.com/stopthekilling  Send us your Listener Questions for our Tuesday episodes  Message us on instagram :  @conmunitypodcast @stopthekillingstories And for all things Katherine Schweit including where you can purchase her book STOP THE KILLING: How to end the mass shooting crisis head to: www.katherineschweit.com SUPPORTING OUR SPONSORS, SUPPORTS THE PODCAST CRIMECON UK TICKETS HERE CRIMECON US TICKETS HERE DON’T forget to use DISCOUNT CODE “FERRIS”  BLENDJET Check out BlendJet: The original portable blender coupon: stk12 (case sensitive) custom URL: https://zen.ai/stk12   Go to blendjet.com and to save 12% use my special link, and the discount will be applied at checkout https://zen.ai/stk12 RESOURCES Stop the Bleed training FBI  RUN, HIDE, FIGHT This is a CONmunity Podcast Production on the Killer Podcasts Network Check out more: CONNING THE CON KLOOGHLESS - THE LONG CON GUILTY GREENIE THE BRAVERY ACADEMY Learn more about your ad choices.
