    Penelope Jackson was married to David Jackson for 24 years then on the evening of 13th February 2021 something happened that would change their lives forever. After researching this case I take a deeper look into what really happened and why Penelope became one of the most known faces in the media over night.

    @emma I experienced abuse from my ex that shocked everyone once I finally said no and left with my children, and no one believed me except the people who finally saw it a year into our divorce. I managed to escape after 15 years. Just because no one sees it, doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen. No one teaches us abuse goes beyond physical abuse so many of us have gotten stuck in and unable to leave and then no one believes you.

    I don't care what his friends and family have to say - anyone who holds a knife to their partner's throat (or anyone's for that matter) is NOT a good or kind individual. If he was comfortable doing that to her in front of others, I can't begin to imagine what he put her through behind closed doors.
    Edit: Some of you seem to think I'm excusing her actions and saying she couldn't have been abusive either. That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying he wasn't the angel people want to think he was just because he's dead.

    Yes appearances are very deceiving. My Mom was verbally abusive to me just about everyday when I was growing up. I was a ballet dancer and then a dancer in a semi- professional dance company. She never once complimented me or said she was proud of me. But to her friends they said she would brag about me to them. I was surprised to hear that. She always wanted to be the center of attention. She never would teach me how to cook because that was what she was really good at. She once tried to teach me to sewn she was also really good at this. But when. I did something when she was trying to teach me to sew. She ripped it out of my hands and said you don’t know what you are doing! Of course I didn’t I never sewed before. When I had my first heartbreak I went to her crying. My mistake. She said to me without any warmth to me or comfort. Well what do you want me to do about it! So anyways behind the scenes things can be very different from what appears.

      She sounds very much like.my mother. My condolences to you. Its one thing to be abused by a partner which I also have but it's entirely another when your own mother treats you as if you don't matter and that they don't love you. A mothers love is possibly the most needed of loves. It's also made worse when having a child yourself and you then understand exactly how most mothers feel toward their child and it finally clicks that your own mother doesn't feel that way about you. It's extremely painful. Much love to you ❤

      Thank you for your kind words! I ended up taking care of my Mother when she got older. Our relationship got better. But when she moved to the same town I lived in. I became very angry inside. She would. Come to my house and try to pick fights with me like she did when I was young. I didn’t tolerate it. I ended up kicking her out of my house three times over the years. I wasn’t going to let her treat me the way she did when I was younger. I planned a trip for me and my sister and my Mom to have a girls trip to Vegas. It was going well until we had just got into our room and she heard young people being loud in the hallway. She went out into the ball and yelled at them telling them she would call the police. I told her to get back in the room and leave them alone. After that we were heading to the elevator to go get something to eat. Apparently she didn’t like me telling her to get into the room. She has a cane she walks with. I’m in a wheelchair I was in a freak accident that left me paralyzed from the chest down. She came up behind me and hit me in the back as hard as she could with her cane and her fist. I yelled at her to not hit me. The people she was yelling at earlier saw what she did. She went ahead of us and got in the elevator. It was going up so it opened to our floor and the people who she yelled at saw her acting so nice to the people in the elevator. They commented oh look how nice she is. Being sarcastic of course. Btw she was living with me at this time. I ended up getting my own room because I didn’t want to be around her after this happened. She asked my sister why I was leaving. She said because you hit her. She said oh I didn’t hit her that hard. My sister said yes you did. Her back really hurts! It hurt for a week afterwards. She ended up moving to a Senior Community soon after that. That was the last time she was abusive to me. She soon started to get dementia and I was in charge of her care. Making sure she was looked after as I was not able to take care of her. I made sure I took her somewhere every weekend to have fun at a casino or the movies or out to eat. When she couldn’t walk and needed to be in a wheelchair I still took her out. I would push her chair even though I’m in a wheelchair too. Lots. Of times people would help me get her to where we weee going. Well that’s my story. I survived it lol. Thanks again for your kind words. 😊

    as someone who comes from a family with 'secret' domestic abuse/ coercive control, and as someone who was abused by my mother until i moved out, im not sure i agree with the opinion that because her family say they didn't see it, it didn't happen.
    i know first-hand that appearances can be deceiving. her reaction after the murder- admitting it, saying her life would be better in prison doesn't seem calculated to me- it sounds like she just snapped. she seemed pleased when she murdered him, almost as if she had done everyone else a favour.

    There are people, mostly women, who are quite relieved to be sentenced to life without the possibility of parole after killing their spouses. "I'm finally free and safe now." That speaks volumes about the situation they were in. I don't know if this is one of those cases, but she clearly snapped. He had something to do about that to some extent. Even so...

    The 'calm cool, calculated' phone call and later 'calm and uncaring' manner, were no such thing. It was the voice and manner of a woman who was completely broken. She had snapped and passed into a world of total fantasy, in which she was playing the part of someone 'cool, calm, calculated', defiant and pleased with herself and above all- IN CHARGE. She is clearly not playing with a full deck. Just my opinion, but even your description is of someone who has gone right over the edge. Even the gallows humour is a clue. That kind of humour is always a defence mechanism for something too hard to face.

      I completely agree with this. I was in an abusive marriage, luckily only for four years. I managed to get away. I cannot imagine what she went through and how she coped for all of those years. You can’t escape them. I know the feeling of wanting to not be here anymore just so you can be away from them. She was completely broken. If this was an animal that had been abused for years on and off and then lost it and attacked their owner, we would understand. I completely agree with what you’re saying. So many don’t see it like this. She may have goaded him. But I’m guessing she had already cracked at that point and was bubbling on the edge. Contemplating her suicide and completely lost control. We can only imagine what was happening behind closed doors if he was doing things like that infront of others. She did need to serve time though because it’s wrong to murder but I think the time she was given was excessive and should have been maybe a quarter of that, in my personal opinion.

    As someone who has experienced coercive control, her family and friends would not necessarily know or observe this. That can be part of it, being forced to appear as if all is great on the outside, a perfect facade. Nobody close to me knew what I was going through. She was almost pleased and proud of what she accomplished, which, if she was a victim of coercive control, makes a bit of sense? Once again, love your delivery and insight ❤️

Especially the clarity with which she speaks about what she did.
      It doesn’t make her actions acceptable by any means but I understand it. He broke her, he broke so badly that she stopped caring and I can see that in her eyes in the clip.

    I have had first hand experience with mentally abused women. Dissociation is very common in many of the victims. I don't condone murder but it is very common that the abuse might have escalated after children's leaving the nest. It does not have to be very obvious for people around them but it can be very subtle in an underhanded way. A word can be said in a way only the woman or the man who is the target of abuse can understand. For example if they speak a foreign language a word of abuse can be said in a joking way or with a smile the other people wouldn't understand. Having said that I am sure Penelope has had extensive psychiatric assessment and any sign of her being a victim of coercive behaviour would have been picked for sure. Her lawyer would not miss that trick if she is her money's worth. Unless like many other services psychiatric assessment was unavailable during lockdown and it will be the base of any future appeal.

    I really think that she was in shock after she stabbed him. I know what it's like to be emotionally pushed so far that you're no longer capable of having human reactions and while I've never hurt anyone I've been in situations where I didn't care what happened to someone because they did so much bad to you you're no longer able to feel for them. I don't think she understood the gravity of the situation and I am certain that she regretted killing him once it all sunk in. And I've known people who suffered domestic abuse - emotional and physical, who were actually really happy when their spouse died (of natural causes). What she did was wrong and might seem calculated but I don't see her as a cold blooded killer - only someone who is psychologically damaged by life experiences pushed to the brink so she no longer understands what's right and wrong

      I agree with this too. when you snap, you really do snap. I think she lost it!! When I heard he was in the army most of his life, it triggered my experience with my military father. I know not everyone in the military, are bullies, but I have experienced an awful childhood from a military man - room inspections, beds being stripped, beatings, blamed for everything, my Mother and siblings walking on eggshells, living in fear, etc. THAT is why I have to lean towards my thoughts that she may have been pushed to the brink. I think she is saying all these things and not meaning them. When she was arrested she said 'oh good" which is obviously not good, and she knows it! She is not meaning what she is saying.
      He was the nicest person to anyone outside the home, no one ever saw the monster that he was!! They would even say how lovely Mr whatshisface is!! He would go out of his way to be helpful to others!! But the neighbours at either side of our home MUST have heard the screams. Screams would be heard a few times a week, they could NOT be mistaken for anything else but children screaming from being beaten. No one ever called the police, and after hospital visits, no one came to check on us, or follow up on these injuries.

    I have worked with many abuse victims and from personal experience I can assure you family and friends don’t often know what’s really going on in a relationship….the abuser hides it very well in front of other people so often you find if friends and family have been asked they often reply with “I had no idea or I didn’t see the signs” I believe she was in an abusive relationship and she had simply got to a point where she had enough and couldn’t take any more and didn’t want to take anymore! The mind can only take so much and the arguments over small things were inevitably the beginning of the end! I do feel sorry for her and I believe her account of things! The press just painted her out to be a cold killer I don’t think that was the case so much more going on here! It’s hard to get away from a controlling person so hard you often have to leave your home and your life behind and some people don’t have those resources to do so! I hope she’s doing ok and getting some therapy

I particularly recognised the half jokes she made about Covid and how he didn't have a heart to stab, as the sort of response I would make when I was in the zone. I'm sure she must have had the worst hangover imaginable when she sobered up. What a terrible situation to be in. I don't drink very much now and have the benefit of hindsight to take heed of my past behaviours. I also have ADHD, and have recently found this out in my 40's!

    Luckily he did not go to prison as it was self defence… but he came VERY close. He was in tears the whole time. He did the right thing in the moment.
    This lady lacks so much empathy or an ounce of responsibility for the seriousness of what she’s done. I agree with her going to prison. It was calculated.

      I understand her too. However, I draw the line at responsibility and accountancy for our actions. (odd she was an accountant). Instead of this keeping up with the Jones and appearances, she should have spent that money in therapy instead of destroying her family. I think 18 years is fair. 10 for killing someone. 8 for all things she said and did that prevented his life from being saved. Although I might have done that same from the abuse I suffered, I probably would have listen to the Emergency services over the phone and to be fair when I have that kind of psychotic break episode, I stop feeling cold. I stop all physical feeling all together. I sliced open my hand grabbing a broken piece of ceramic in a rage. I didn't feel or see it until everyone else around started screaming that I was bleeding. When I got to the hospital the doctor said you gave a high pain threshold while poking and prodding the gash . I said this is how I am hours after an episode, I feel numb and like everything including me isn't real.

I can absolutely say that IF she was in that bad of a situation, the relief of knowing she was DONE with it, and to her the how wouldn't matter right then. After going through what I did, at points in it I would happily have gone to jail JUST TO BE OUT. My children are probably one of the biggest reasons why I didn't.

    I think she sounds rather narcissistic. Goading someone and threatening suicide in someone's presence is very controlling in itself, especially given that she told her daughter that she was fine. It's highly manipulative and angry behavior.
    My mother, highly narcissistic, gets on her pity pot whenever she's confronted with reality and says things like, "I might as well die then." She's trying to manipulate her children into giving into her self-destructive whims. The last time she said that, my sister told her to hurry up and die then. This is calling a manipulator to account for their emotional manipulation. Is it nice? Perhaps not, but then neither are veiled attempts to manipulate others to get your way.
    I say this as someone who has suffered at my mother's hands and been verbally abused by my husband for 12 straight hours. I'm neither naive nor heartless. I must give some grace to her husband. How many times has she pulled this crap? We don't know and we cannot ask her dead husband. Was he overbearing and nit picky about minutia? Sounds like it. But the way to handle that is with wisdom, not with escalation.
    I stayed separated from my husband, whom I love dearly, for five months after his night of verbal terror. It broke my heart and there was no family nearby to run to. So, I get how hard it is to stand one's ground and not know where you're going to be from day to day or how long the DV shelter will allow you to stay. I understand loving someone who hurts you and wanting and needing to protect yourself and stay safe. But . . . , my concern for my own well being was equal to my deep and abiding concern for my husband's soul and well being. I never went a day without praying for him. He was broken more than I. And that broke my heart for him, not for me.
    The fact that we eventually reconciled and reunited is by the grace of God that I cared as much about my husband's soul as I cared about my own. We are one flesh. I cried nearly every day of those five months for him. Not to make me complete but that he would come to his senses and get the help he needed. And he did.
    Perhaps Penelope and David were both equally broken in similar ways. And apparently, Penelope felt entitled to being herself without giving an inch while expecting David to do all the changing to appease her insatiable need to be right instead of making peace with the reality that she picked a broken man which has to tell us something about her own brokenness and twisted needs.

      I disagree. Her stating she wanted to commit suicide could of been her at her wits end. When another person is putting you down constantly, telling you you can't do this or that right for example him complaining about having bubble and squeak etc she got to a point where, " if I can't do anything right if everything I do is wrong, then Il take my own life, will that make you happy"
      It's more likely he choose her as a partner due to his abusive ways. Holding a knife to her throat in public so how was he behind closed doors and for how long?

      @@sarahh5058 I understand your point of view and in some cases you are correct.
      However and this is just my opinion, I don't see this here with this lady.
      I did a deep dive into this case and I found out some very interesting things aswel as what was reported.
      When they first met in the beginning with this relationship he had an adopted son which he and his previous wife took on before she died.
      This lady gave him an ultimatum and said he had to put that child back into the care system if he wanted to make things work out for their relationship.
      This is what happened.
      Also I am not saying he wasn't ever faultless he was, however the whole relationship had its problems for a while.
      The night of this incident she took the knife, the murder weapon into the bedroom and placed it under her pillow before the argument ensued.
      So her explanation of defending herself breaks down completely imo.
      Also she had plenty of opportunities to exit this relationship, which if course would of been the better option.

I still have nightmares about himand how he treated me.lucky i did meet a lovely man after spending years on my own and he is kind lovely man and he would never hurt me for the world .

    I feel so conflicted with this case Emma, I think it’s so hard to form a solid opinion or argument, I have been in a very abusive controlling relationship between the ages of 16-19 and even his parents knew and saw what he was doing and didn’t intervene including me being physically hurt and had my life threatened multiple times - it’s too easy to say ‘just leave’ if you are being controlled with your life threatened daily even if you don’t live with the person it is terrifying I cannot even put into words how scary it is; especially when adults don’t even care. In this case she suffered for decades, there were times where I lost my care when he would hurt himself just to get a reaction out of me he would cut himself or threaten to take his own life and I was so mentally damaged by him I wouldn’t care and remember that’s only 3 years - now you imagine decades of abuse! I believe she was in shock the night she committed Murder because it is murder whether the control and abuse was as severe as stated or not it is murder. She was in shock - she was repeatedly saying she was cold and that was her only take from the horrific situation because in real shock your body temperature drops, she didn’t go to help him because I honestly think she did want him dead in that moment and then after she had thought about it in silence for hours or days she would’ve started to realise her reality of what she actually done and the fact she will never see David again; someone she had loved and when you are under coercive control for years you feel lost without that person you are ‘free’ but you feel lost and scared and the realisation of what she’s done and the life she took would’ve dawned on her so she stopped talking in the wake of it all as she realised she murdered her husband. I do believe all of the abuse happened; in abusive relationships you can over time become hardened and emotionless and even become abusive yourself because toxicity breeds into people and I think they abused eachother - there’s always the classic ‘abuser and victim’ but more often than not it’s ‘abusers’ they abuse eachother because it’s a toxic relationship and a toxic living environment. Of course family will say it’s a blissful relationship because they don’t see how they treat eachother behind closed doors - other than the times David slipped up and showed then BUT that was early on that was 1980 (I think) and penny would have been softer then she would’ve been terrified then, she wasn’t used to the constant comments, control and occasional physical violence and over time she would’ve got ‘used’ to it she would be numbed too it and she did have fractures over time she carried so much shame she was embarrassed infront of her child and stepson on what should’ve been a lovely special occasion and she probably did snap after being trapped in lockdown the abuse would’ve amplified. I’m on no ones ‘Side’ because I’ve been in a slightly similar position with someone like I said for 3 years and you do start to become numb and it causes confusion and what’s right and wrong really can diminish and I do believe she snapped. The sentence is fair because it is murder and the way she carried on after was cold and undeniable and I feel sorry for David’s family BUT let’s still keep in mind she was abused - I can’t comment further it’s too conflicting ! 🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ also let me just add.. I still have PTSD 10 years on from my relationship I’ve had counselling and I’m still trying to repair the damage, now you imagine decades of it…
