When Hannah Clarke’s estranged husband murdered her and their three young children in Brisbane in February, it was unthinkable to most Australians that someone could be that evil. Or brutal. He doused his family in petrol and set them alight. The crime highlighted the danger and complexity of domestic violence, as does Jacqui Barker’s story.

Jacqui bravely fought back by launching a private criminal prosecution against her ex-partner.
