#470: She's Your Neighbor: Interview with Survivor Colette Martin

EXTREME TRIGGER WARNING. Today we interview Colette Martin who takes us through the harrowing night she was attacked by her former intimate partner, months after he had moved out from the home they shared, months after he had already started a new relationship with another woman. Colette, a mom with a young son, living in the New Brunswick region of Canada, didn’t know how to recognize the red flags in her ex-boyfriend and had no way of knowing he was a ticking time bomb who was planning to murder her, in front of her child, in plain sight of her parents’ house who lived next door. Laura illuminates all of the warning signs of coercive control that he displayed. Amazingly, Colette survived and has gone on to help other vulnerable women and change laws in Canada.Colette is part of the “She Is Your Neighbor” awareness project and short documentary created by the Women’s Crisis Service of Waterloo Region.
