Today’s true crime case takes us to 2012 when 16 year old Alex Skeel started dating Jordan Worth, outwardly a bright bubbly 16 year old who had aspirations of being a teacher. However, this relationship would almost cost Alex his life. Jordan Worth is a very dangerous young woman who subjected Alex to a campaign of abuse over almost 5 years. She controlled every aspect of his life, banned him from seeing his friends and talking to his family, took control of his money and forced him to quit his job and instead go to classes with her at University even though he was not studying there. Between 2016 and 2017 the abuse escalated significantly Jordan burned, starved and stabbed Alex with him being forced to bind his wounds with clingfilm and football socks. It was only with the help of a persistent Police Officer and Alex’s own bravery that the abuse came to an end in June 2017 and he was able to get proper medical treatment with doctors saying that he was 10 days away from death. When confronted with her behaviour Jordan showed no remorse for her actions and was completely disconnected from reality. Jordan Worth was the first woman in the UK to be convicted of coercive and controlling behaviour in a relationship but the lenient sentence she got, her remorseless and the horror that she put Alex through are truly sickening Chapters: 00:00:00 Start 00:01:50 Intro 00:03:57 Jordan Worth 00:05:35 Alex Skeel and Jordan Worth’s relationship, the early days 00:13:39 The abuse escalates 00:22:34 The downfall of Jordan Worth 00:29:04 Investigation 00:37:13 Legal proceedings 00:38:12 Jordan Worth: Unapologetic, remorseless, dangerous 00:42:30 The bravery of Alex Skeel and advice and support services 00:51:08 Jordan Worth: A profile 01:02:25 End Support Services Help for men in the UK and Ireland Men’s advice line run by Respect Website: https://mensadviceline.org.uk/ Phone: 0808 8010327 (10am - 5pm Monday to Friday) E-mail: info@mensadviceline.org.uk Webchat: Wednesday between 10am - 11:30am and Thursday 2pm - 4pm.
