| 10/6/26 | The Murder of Samantha Henderson | It is estimated that approximately 80 children are left motherless after domestic homicide each year in England and Wales. These children not only have to endure grief and trauma, but they are also then uprooted, sometimes they are taken in by family members and sometimes they are placed into the care system. Today, we’re going to look at the case of Samantha Henderson and a brutal murder that left four children without their mother, because an act of evil took her away from them forever.
