It is estimated that approximately 80 children are left motherless after domestic homicide each year in England and Wales. These children not only have to endure grief and trauma, but they are also then uprooted, sometimes they are taken in by family members and sometimes they are placed into the care system.

Today, we’re going to look at the case of Samantha Henderson and a brutal murder that left four children without their mother, because an act of evil took her away from them forever.

But what happens when a criminal court and an inquest come to a different conclusion, where one says he was killed in self-defence, but the other says he was unlawfully killed?

This is REAL.

When 42-year-old Natalie Bennett set her sights on 19-Year-Old Kasey Anderson, everyone who knew them both could never have imagined that they would start a romantic relationship.
