Bonus: Dear Daughter: Surviving my daughter's killing

Bonus: Dear Daughter: Surviving my daughter's killing

When 19-year-old Ann from Florida, USA was shot by her boyfriend in 2010, her family were thrust into a nightmare, one that meant taking the agonising decision to withdraw her life support.

In this intensely moving account of violence and loss, Ann’s mother, Kate, tells Namulanta that instead of pursuing the traditional court process, she chose something almost unheard of at the time - restorative justice. Sitting face-to-face with the man who killed her daughter, she entered a process that allowed her to shape his sentence and speak openly about the impact of Ann’s death.

In her highly emotional letter to Ann for Dear Daughter, Kate reveals an extraordinary decision—one that will stay with you long after her story ends.
