The question Jess Hill is asked only too often is: ‘why doesn’t she just leave?’.
The question fails to acknowledge that leaving an abusive partner is one of the most dangerous moves a victim survivor can ever make.
Sometimes it is too risky – women will make a decision to stay with their abuser, and the abuse, rather than take a punt on his threats of greater harm should she attempt to escape.
See What You Made Me Do explores an epidemic that has no signs of slowing.
Hosted by investigative journalist, Jess Hill, and inspired by her award-winning book of the same name, See What You Made Me Do will ignite a crucial conversation about domestic abuse.
The series asks what needs to be done to keep women and children safer and hold perpetrators to account.
Episode Two of See What You Made Me Do airs tonight, Wednesday, 12 May at 8.30pm on SBS
Each episode will be made available on SBS On Demand following its broadcast.
