Calls grow for posthumous pardon of Ruth Ellis after granddaughter cites modern understanding of domestic abuse.
Ruth Ellis, executed in 1955 for killing her abusive partner, is the subject of renewed calls for a posthumous pardon from her granddaughter, Laura Enston.
After watching a recent ITV drama about Ruth’s life, Enston argues that modern understanding of domestic abuse would likely prevent such a conviction.
She emphasizes that the justice system failed to account for the abuse Ruth endured and urges the government to acknowledge the case as unjust by today’s standards.
