In July 2025, 20-year-old Courtney Angus moved into a house share with a man called Michael Doherty, excited about her new independence and her upcoming 21st birthday celebrations.
But just 2 days after she moved in, Michael started to make unwanted advances toward Courtney and his reaction to her rejection would be fatal.
As the police started to gather evidence, they discovered that Michael had a conviction for a sexual assault before and a history of abusive behaviour towards women... but this was never flagged because he changed his name as it was legal for him to do so, even though he was a sex offender.
Now Della Wright, a survivor of child sexual abuse, is fighting for change, after her perpetrator changed his name to evade authorities and keep his past hidden. She's fighting for 'Della's Law, which will end this loophole that has seen thousands of registered sex offenders 'go missing' under the watch of authorities.
This is REAL.
