The Controlling Man with Crime Analyst, Laura Richards 🔍
About this episode
Today's podcast discusses themes of domestic violence, femicide and coercive control. Listener discretion is advised and we encourage you to seek support via 1800 RESPECT. Laura is a guest that I have been incredibly excited (and nervous) to have on the podcast.
After a decade of analysing violent crime at New Scotland Yard, Laura became the violence adviser to the National Police Chiefs Council (NPCC). Trained by world leaders at the Behavioural Analysis Unit, National Centre for the Analysis of Violent Crime at the FBI, and New Scotland Yard, Laura has applied her psychology degrees to analyse violent crime from a behavioural and preventative perspective.
Laura has been the architect of law reform to better protect victims on 8 occasions as well giving evidence in Connecticut USA and Queensland Australia, both leading to successful outcomes regarding coercive control law reform.
