Ep 206: My Sister Sarah’s Legacy: Teaching Boys to Break the Cycle of Coercive Control & Male Violence with Bernie Bernard, Part 2

Laura and Bernie continue to unravel how Sarah, Bernie’s sister, was love bombed and manipulated by Ian Hope from the first direct message he sent her, leading to a pattern of abuse. On one occasion Hope assaulted Sarah with a rolling pin, hospitalizing her for four days. The night Hope murdered Sarah, the police were called but they failed to check Hope’s history or take proactive action directed at him. In fact, they didn’t even ask his name.   In this episode you’ll learn why victim blaming is pervasive and how everything in our language structure and systems is designed to edit the male abuser from the narrative. Bernie shares how he uses Sarah’s murder to educate young boys to change their behaviour early on asking questions including: What is sexual violence? What is consent? How many women have been killed by men who gave the reason it was a sex game gone wrong? How many men have been strangled to death by women in similar so-called sex games gone wrong? You will have many lightbulb moments.   Listen, share the episode with people you care about and join the conversation in the Crime Analyst Squad: www.patreon.com/CrimeAnalyst #SarahGosling #HerNameWasSarahGosling #CrimeAnalyst #Expert #Analysis #TrueCrime #Podcast #CoerciveControl #SexualViolence #MaleViolence #IanHope   Clips https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElJxUVJ8blw   Sources https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-tyne-20547728 https://innovativeenterprise.co.uk/portfolio/domestic-violence-sarahs-legacy/ https://manenough.com/podcast/ https://www.amazon.com/Love-Men-Vision-Mindful-Masculinity/dp/1250196248 https://innovativeenterprise.co.uk/2024/04/16/book-review-for-the-love-of-men-by-liz-plank/  https://cms.barnardos.org.uk/sites/default/files/2022-12/Online-safety%20bill-pornography-children-briefing-dec2022.pdf https://wecantconsenttothis.uk/ https://www.cps.gov.uk/publication/cps-and-equally-ours-research-public-understanding-rape-and-serious-sexual-offences https://www.jacksonkatz.com/   Thank you to the wonderful Crime Analyst Sponsor: Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at SHOPIFY.com/crimeanalyst     REGISTER For Laura’s 2024 Masterclasses: https://shoutout.wix.com/so/b4P5SKknQ?languageTag=en   More Training Info: www.dashriskchecklist.com www.thelaurarichards.com   YouTube, Socials and Website YouTube @crimeanalyst Instagram @crimeanalyst @laurarichards999 Twitter @thecrimeanalyst @laurarichards99 TikTok @crimeanalystpod Website www.crime-analyst.com Leave a Review https://www.crime-analyst.com/reviews/new/ Learn more about your ad choices.
