Today, we're sharing an episode from Sherele Moody's podcast, She Matters. You can click here to listen to more episodes on Apple, or you can find She Matters wherever you listen to podcasts.
You can also sign the "Justice for Kelly" petition here.
Show notes:
A man heard the violence behind the wall. He did not help her. Her sister found the single mum days later. The smell of her favourite human decaying forever lingers in her memory. Her murder warranted no more than three lines in one newspaper. Her killer still walks among us.
Her name is Kelly Williams (Duffy). She was only 31. You've never heard of her but it's not for want of trying. Kelly's sister Paula has spent the past 23 years trying to get journalists to tell her story.
Today she gets that wish.

Shirley Butler, a 21 year old woman, was found dead just metres from her home in Waverton on Christmas Day 1952.
Detectives launched an intense hunt for answers and even staged a world first radio re enactment of her final tram ride, while the press hinted that police were holding back key details.
Nearly six months later, a dramatic arrest made headlines, but the revelations that followed proved even more astonishing.

Katherine Hayes, CEO of Queensland's Youth Advocacy Centre, offers a frontline view of youth crime shaped by long term work with young offenders.
She explains why Queensland's adult crime, adult time approach has failed, pointing to high reoffending rates and deep systemic issues.
Katherine urges Victoria not to repeat what she calls an evidence free mistake and sheds light on what actually reduces youth crime.

For this bonus episode of ATC International, we bring you a story from the USA.
Amy B. Chesler is an award winner blogger, actress and author from Southern California. She's also the host of a podcast called "What Came Next".
She's uniquely qualified to discuss true crime, because she's suffered a lifetime of abuse at the hands of her brother, Jesse.
That abuse continues, despite the fact that he's incarcerated for the 2007 murder of their mother, Hadas.
Amy joins us today to talk about the slow build up of abusive behaviour that led to her mother's attack, and the ongoing threat her brother poses from behind bars.
