At a press conference at the State House this morning, members of the Maine Domestic Abuse Homicide Review Panel gathered to share its 15th Biennial Report. The report is the culmination of the Panel’s review of 20 domestic abuse homicides occurring between 2021 and 2024. The unveiling included remarks from Governor Janet Mills, Attorney General Aaron M.

“The observations, findings, and recommendations contained in this report advance our understanding of domestic abuse dynamics and provide meaningful strategies for prevention. I am eternally grateful to the members of the Panel who continue to devote their time, passion and expertise to make Maine a safer place for everyone.” – AG Frey
