:00:16. > :00:26.Police and social workers s`y more should have been done to stop him.
:00:27. > :00:30.He should have been convictdd. He should have been challenged by
:00:31. > :00:48.everyone he The writers using science
:00:49. > :00:53.and the bones of slaves to understand the lives
:00:54. > :00:55.of the oppressed. A review into the death
:00:56. > :00:57.of a Cheltenham woman murdered by her ex-husband has found
:00:58. > :01:03.authorities failed to understand Jane Wiggett was murdered
:01:04. > :01:06.by Danny Spencer three years ago, Here's our Gloucestershire reporter,
:01:07. > :01:09.Steve Knibbs. Jane Wiggett lived all of hdr adult
:01:10. > :01:11.life suffering psychological and physical abuse at
:01:12. > :01:13.the hands of Danny Spencer. When she went missing
:01:14. > :01:16.in 2013, police were told that Spencer had been
:01:17. > :01:18.in contact with Jane. So they called him, but he lied
:01:19. > :01:20.because he'd already killed her And why is it that
:01:21. > :01:29.she's not speaking to So have you got a telephone
:01:30. > :01:38.number for her? she's been reported as a missing
:01:39. > :01:53.person to us. Today a review into Jane's lurder
:01:54. > :01:56.found that during 40 years of abuse she'd done everything right
:01:57. > :01:58.as a victim - seeking help and advice from organisations that
:01:59. > :02:01.should have made a difference. But over time she lost confhdence
:02:02. > :02:04.in them and withdrew, trying to manage
:02:05. > :02:05.the situation herself. The warning signs were
:02:06. > :02:07.there for decades that Danny Spencer was dangerous,
:02:08. > :02:09.but there was a systemic failure in recognising
:02:10. > :02:12.the danger that Jane was in. Every agency that Jane went
:02:13. > :02:14.to seemed to fail to recognise the seriousness of her
:02:15. > :02:39.situation and she felt in the end He should have been challenged
:02:40. > :02:46.robust lead by everybody who came into contact with him, incltding his
:02:47. > :02:55.friends. I back with the review found Jane's death was predhctable.
:02:56. > :02:57.-- The review found. There was no information at the time that there
:02:58. > :03:14.was an immediate threat to her life. We hold a daily meeting with
:03:15. > :03:19.partners to pick the domesthc abuse. Do we understand that do have all
:03:20. > :03:23.the information? Are we supporting the victims? The ones who do not
:03:24. > :03:26.want to ring gauge with this and think they can deal with thdse
:03:27. > :03:33.things on their own. We need to empower people to make the right
:03:34. > :03:46.decisions. This is where Jane lived. A lot has changed in how victims of
:03:47. > :03:49.domestic abuse are helped. What the victim will constantly see hs the
:03:50. > :03:55.perpetrator just walking aw`y all the time. They are often thd ones
:03:56. > :03:59.who have to chew something `bout the situation. The expectation hs on
:04:00. > :04:05.them. Yet they have done nothing wrong. Ultimately the themes
:04:06. > :04:10.surrounding Jane's are all too familiar. It is about organhsations
:04:11. > :04:17.are understanding and sharing with each other the risk she facdd.
:04:18. > :04:21.A man who pretended to be a taxi driver and falsely imprisondd two

:04:52. > :04:56.Peter Walker's wife Diane dhed in May and was cremated.
:04:57. > :05:00.He wanted her memorial plaqte to have a space for a vase
:05:01. > :05:03.for flowers, just like the other ones in the churchyard at St Andrews
:05:04. > :05:21.It is so insensitive and cold hearted I cannot believe it. I am
:05:22. > :05:27.not allowed to put flowers on my wife's is. I cannot underst`nd it at
:05:28. > :05:35.all. They say it is due to lowing and upkeep costs. If that is above
:05:36. > :05:40.my wife's tablet, I am sorrx. We seem to come second. Mr Walker has
:05:41. > :05:44.been told he can appeal but it will cost him ?300.

:06:42. > :06:48.Usually when writers write about slavery,
:06:49. > :06:49.they might begin with historical fragments.
:06:50. > :06:51.So things like legal documents or newspaper clippings
:06:52. > :06:58.They are documents written from the view of the coloniser,
:06:59. > :07:04.So what we wanted to do was use the bodies of enslaved people
:07:05. > :07:07.themselves as the starting point and to think about the information
:07:08. > :07:10.that archaeological science can give us about those bodies.
:07:11. > :07:12.They studied the archaeologhcal histories of eight slaves, learning

:08:21. > :08:25.It's uncomfortable hearing about slaves suffering when stood
