Katie: Coerced and Killed

Showjumper Katie Simpson鈥檚 killer told everyone she had taken her own life. His history of violence and her injuries should have raised red flags but his lie almost went undetected.

Katie Simpson鈥檚 love for horses brought her into the orbit of Jonathan Creswell, a showjumper-turned-horse trainer with a dark history of coercive control and violence against women. When he claimed to be the Good Samaritan who found the 21-year-old after she attempted suicide, some were immediately suspicious. But for months police seemed to take his story at face value. Jennifer O鈥橪eary investigates Katie鈥檚 terrible death and how his lies almost went undetected.
