Murdered by My Husband
One Sunday in April 2018, 28-year-old Hollie Kerrell disappeared from her home in Knucklas, Wales. Her husband Chris sent texts to friends and family stating he was concerned, but no one had seen or heard from her. He told police they had argued, and he claimed she had stormed off to start a new life. Detective Superintendent Anthony Griffiths of Dyfed-Powys Police took charge of the case, and within a matter of hours had assembled a 25-strong team of investigators in a bid to find her safe and well. But Griffiths knew something wasn't right. Why would a mother leave her kids behind?
