A teenager who saw her mother murdered by her stepfather in Shropshire has helped create a documentary about the horrific killing.
Cheryl Gabriel-Hooper, 51, was shot by her estranged husband Andrew Hooper as she sat in her car outside her home in Newport in January 2018.Cheryl had been subjected to years of domestic abuse from Hooper who, after a failed suicide bid, was jailed for life.
She also campaigns for more awareness training for those who could go on to identify and help victims. The farmer, left unable to speak after turning the gun on himself, was told he would serve a minimum of 31 years in jail.Before her murder, Cheryl and her daughter had moved out of Hooper's farm and into a new home to start a new life because of the abuse. But Hooper had fitted a tracker to Cheryl's car and followed her to the new house.
Hooper had been given a suspended sentence in 2004 after breaking into his first wife's home and threatening to kill her after they broke up."Perpetrators are very good at manipulating people and situations and making it look like there's nothing going on," Georgia said.
