Caught On Camera - A Domestic Abuse Rescue
You’ve got a life, and you deserve that life. These people make you feel worthless, completely useless; that’s not true. They deserve the punishment, you don’t, but until you tell someone, or say it’s ‘got to stop’, it will carry on. Do what you’ve got to do, but do it sooner than I did it.
Dawn Marmoy is re-building her life after years of abuse from her husband. He is now serving a 10-year prison sentence.
Michael John Gregory, aged 77, was convicted at Portsmouth Crown Court on May 2, 2014 after pleading guilty to assaulting Dawn at their home on the Isle of Wight on October 26, 2013.
Dawn's substantial injuries and Michael Gregory’s behaviour at home shortly after the assault were recorded on Body-Worn Video (BWV) cameras by two police constables who responded to a 999 call from Dawn. The distressing scene was all too common for Dawn, who had endured years of physical and mental abuse at his hands.
Today she'll be bravely joining our women to discuss the ordeal that night...

“...the injuries were worst i’ve ever seen on a living person in 18 years of policing. I’m surprised Dawn is alive today.”
