EP44: Beaten and Battered Boyfriend

Tank Sinatra & Investigator Slater
About this episode

The case of Alex Skeel highlights a gut-wrenching story of domestic abuse that unfolded in the UK. Alex, a young man in his teens/early twenties, suffered years of horrific physical, emotional, verbal, and psychological abuse at the hands of his depraved girlfriend, Jordan Worth. Alex sustained absolutely brutal physical injuries, psychological torment, and devastating isolation as Jordan wielded absolute control over every facet of his entire existence…until he almost ceased to exist entirely.  Just ten days aways from death, Alex's profoundly disturbing case serves as a stark reminder of the often-overlooked plight of male victims within the realm of domestic violence. It compels us to confront the pressing need for greater awareness and understanding surrounding this issue, and underscores the vital importance of acknowledging and addressing all manifestations of abuse that can fester within intimate relationships.
