The mother of a 15-year-old girl stabbed to death by her boyfriend has called for the law to be changed to better protect young victims of domestic abuse.

Micala Trussler, the mother of Holly Newton, added schools need to be better at educating young people about what constitutes domestic abuse so they know “what is normal and what is not normal”.
