Episode 90: Self Defence or Cold Blooded Murder? The Case of Sally McNeil

Valentines night in '95 would turn out to be a night that would alter the life of Sally McNeil significantly. A beaten and battered woman at the hands of her husband Ray, the years of abuse would come to a brutal, bloody end on that night, with Ray the recipient of two shotgun blasts, one to the stomach and one to the face. What followed would be a long, convoluted trial, which focused on two questions: was it self defence or was Sally a bitter woman with her own anger issues and violent tendencies, who was lashing out at her husband who was going to leave her for someone else? . https://www.womensaid.org.uk/information-support/the-survivors-handbook/ive-left-and-i-need-support/ https://www.mind.org.uk/information-support/guides-to-support-and-services/abuse/ https://www.dadsunltd.org.uk/services/dave/ . https://www.horrorhousetruecrime.com https://www.buymeacoffee.com/hhpod Insta: @horrorhouse_pod .
