Sativa Transue was 26, on a Thanksgiving trip to Cancún, Mexico, when her boyfriend, Taylor Allen, turned a dream holiday into a scene of horror. Ellie Gould was 17, revising for her exams in Wiltshire, England, when her ex-boyfriend, Thomas Griffiths, arrived at her home and ended her life.
Two countries. Two women. One devastating pattern of coercive control and violence that crossed borders and backgrounds alike.
In this bitesize episode of Cup of Coffee and Crime, we explore the murders of Sativa Transue and Ellie Gould, cases that expose how domestic violence and manipulation can escalate behind closed doors. One family still waits for justice in Mexico, while another fought for sentencing reform in the UK and won.
Both stories ask the same haunting question: how do we stop love from becoming a weapon?
