Justice for Hannah McGuire

In this heartbreaking episode, we honour the life of Hannah McGuire, a 23-year-old teachers aide from Ballarat whose future was stolen in an act of fatal domestic violence. Hannah's body was found in her burnt-out vehicle in bushland, as her ex-partner, Lachlan Young, had murdered her and tried to stage her death as a suicide. What he does next will shock you. We walk through the events leading up to this day, and what sentence was handed down. Hannah deserved safety and protection; she deserved her life.
