dc.description.notesThis UK article discusses the offence of ‘familial homicide’, introduced in the United Kingdom by the Domestic Violence Crime and Victims Act 2004:. The article examines the community and legal response to three cases involving mothers convicted of familial homicide following the killing of their child by their violent intimate partner. The authors contrast these cases with the experience of a woman thirty years earlier whose child was also killed by her violent intimate partner, but who was recognised as a victim of domestic violence rather than an inadequate mother deserving criminal prosecution. The authors also contrast the actions of the public agencies that were associated with the events surrounding the children’s deaths in the earlier and latter cases, and observe a shift in the balance of liability from the state to the individual.en
