Greater Manchester Police officers were visited by a family member of a domestic homicide victim to talk about the loss of a loved one.
On Monday, March 27, the father of 19-year-old Carly Fairhurst, Trevor Fairhurst, visited officers at Wigan Police Station to share their family's story about losing their daughter Carly in a domestic homicide back in 2006.
The input was delivered by Carly’s father to response officers, the Domestic Abuse Team and Prisoner Processing Unit, giving them an insight into what they experienced as a family during that difficult period in their lives and what effect domestic abuse has on victims.
A spokesman for GMP said: “If you or someone you know is a victim of Domestic Abuse, report it to GMP now and we will take action.
“Do not suffer in silence, you are not alone. You can report to GMP by calling 101 or 999 in an emergency. For further support, please visit our website.”
