Description

Webinar Description

The main purpose of reviewing domestic violence fatalities is to prevent future domestic violence and deaths. Review teams seek information about a victim’s death from multiple sources such as law enforcement, social service, and health care to identify risks, system breakdowns, and strategies to ensure safety. However, to understand what life was like for the victim and what it was like engaging with service agencies, review teams across the country and in England are also talking with those who likely knew the victim best: family, friends and community members.This webinar will explore the importance of involving family/friends/community with the domestic violence fatality review process and how they have enhanced system changes and fatality prevention.

Frank Mullane

Frank Mullane is the director of Advocacy After Fatal Domestic Abuse (AAFDA), a charity helping families after domestic homicide. He is credited with being the driving force behind the introduction of Domestic Homicide Reviews into England and the involvement of families, friends and community members. Frank is a member of the national quality assurance panel for these reviews and been consulted by families and others on around 90 of these inquiries. He is a visiting university lecturer and a student assessor. Frank was commissioned to help form the statutory guidance for these reviews and to write leaflets for the families. In 2013, following his recommendation, the guidance was amended to improve the rights of families to involvement.

Frank’s sister Julia and nephew William Pemberton were murdered by Alan Pemberton in 2003. The family campaigned for five years to uncover all the facts and Frank still meets with the agencies involved. The Pemberton Review was described by one expert as “..a landmark achievement in the field of domestic violence fatality or homicide review....., the review sets a gold standard in terms of its detailed appreciation of the complex issues in domestic violence cases…..”
