Every year hundreds of people die preventable deaths at the hands of police, whilst in prison, or in the care of mental health services in the UK. Some of the names you’ll know. Most of them you won’t.
Bereaved families are left fighting for answers, demanding justice, and campaigning for change, in a system that is stacked against them.
Unlawful Killing is produced by Leila Hagmann and Naomi Oppenheim.*
