In July 2022, 23-year-old Kiena Dawes took her own life after suffering continuous domestic abuse at the hands of her ex-partner, Ryan Wellings.
Kiena was not the only woman who reached breaking point. The Domestic Homicide Project has found that more victims of domestic abuse killed themselves, than were murdered by their abuser.
This is Real.
