Description

On December 2, 2018, 22-year-old British backpacker Grace Millane was meant to be celebrating her birthday in Auckland, New Zealand. Instead, she was killed in a hotel room by a man she had met just hours earlier on Tinder. Her death shocked the nation and sparked international outrage, grief, and a reckoning with how violence against women is addressed in both media and the justice system.

In today’s episode, we trace Grace’s journey from England to New Zealand, the hours leading up to her murder, the swift police investigation that followed, and the trial that exposed chilling details. We also explore the wider impact of her case—from legal reform efforts to a global conversation about consent, safety, and how we remember victims beyond the headlines.
