A Dartford mum-of-two took her own life because she was ‘petrified’ at the prospect of facing her abusive and violent ex-boyfriend in court. Images show the horrific abuse Gemma Robinson, 34, suffered at the hands of ex-partner Joseph Falconer, who was described by a judge as a “dangerous, jealous and controlling man.” Now Gemma’s devastated family have launched a campaign urging the public to support tougher sentencing for her abuser, also releasing the photos of her injuries.
