Coercive control is a behavior that is intended to dominate and control a partner. Studies indicate that it can occur in up to 58% of intimate partner violence relationships.
Australian woman Lilie James (21) began dating Paul Thijssen (24) in August 2023. Paul exhibited controlling behavior, including monitoring Lilie’s location over social media and waiting outside social events for her.
By October 2023, the relationship was over.
Just days after the breakup, Paul went to a location where he knew Lilie would be. He struck her with a hammer over 25 times, killing her. He then fled the scene and would take his own life by jumping from a cliff.
