Breaking Silence speaks for Trinity in this new series episode. Trinity was just 16 when her life was violently taken at the Manurewa train station by an online date. Her mother Margaret shares Trinity’s story in the hopes of helping others. She tells of the events that led up to the tragic loss of her daughter’s life.
