Ep 185: Australia: The Bondi Junction Mass Murder, Femicide and Male Violence with Lauren Trevan, Part 1

Laura interviews Australian author and advocate Lauren Trevan about the national crises of men killing women and her book Now I See You.

We recorded this episode just after the horrific Bondi attack by Joel Cauchi on April 13 2024, where he stabbed 18 people including a nine-month-old baby killing her mother, Ashlee Good, and four other women, Dawn Singleton, Jade Young, Pikria Darchia, Yixuan Cheng and one man, Faraz Tahir, who died trying to protect women. Cauchi was shot dead by a brave female Inspector from New South Wales Police, Amy Scott, who single handedly pursued him through the mall.

There has been an increase in male violence to women and femicides with many Australians taking to the streets to demand urgent action to end male violence to women. At the start of Domestic Violence Prevention Month in Australia, women are quite rightly angry, and Laura wanted to focus on women’s voices, honour the victims and spotlight what needs to change. Join Laura and Lauren next week when they will dive into Lauren’s own case and book.
