</div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div>
'It was a very, very traumatic scene,' an officer recollects, detailing how 'severe' and 'brutal' Angie's accidents have been.
And as forensic investigations began to happen, with neighbours referred to as on and the Alexa units containing key proof discovered, police have been left questioning why White killed his wife.
In tearful scenes, a glimpse into Angie's life is proven by way of previous residence footage and commentary from her loved ones.
'My mum was a really bubbly individual, very sort, she was appreciated by everybody, she didn't really have a nasty bone in her physique,' her daughter Molly says.
In 2010, a 34-year-old Angie moved to Swansea with Molly, where Angie met and began a relationship with White, who was 24 at the time, ten years her junior. Initially the connection blossomed, with Molly witnessing the constructive aspect he was bringing out of her mum.
'You possibly can see the love there from the primary day really and it solely received stronger. And you would see the love rising,' she says.
Nevertheless it wasn't lengthy earlier than cracks started to emerge, with Angie's household and associates paying attention to how quiet Daniel was around all of them and the best way through which that was rubbing off on an additionally notably quieter Angie.
'He was such an introvert, but we simply assumed he was a really shy individual. I didn't actually see him as being her sort,' Laura Harvey, Angie's sister reflects, whereas their mum remembers how he didn't converse a lot and blend with the others.
However Angie was joyful, and nobody questioned her selection, with Angie and White marrying in 2012.
It wasn't lengthy later later thought that she turned much less sociable, much less energetic and increasingly more withdrawn from her household.
Molly, who grew up at first seeing White as a father-figure, quickly started to witness the indicators that her mom's relationship was deteriorating badly, and that White, whilst presenting as a shy introvert, was displaying the traits of a manipulative, violent abuser inside the privateness of their very own house.
'They'd be having arguments, but I by no means really noticed him lay a hand on my mum, he'd increase his voice however he never spoke badly to her once I was round,' Molly admitted.
But her sister remembers otherwise. 'She did have a black eye at one level, and I'm positive she even used the cliché "I walked into the door",' Laura says, as she recollects Angie making an attempt to hide the abuse.
'Aside from that one time, I never noticed anything on her,' she adds, as their mum Carol admits: 'I didn't know the danger I used to be in.'

At one point, Molly rung the police after hearing a particularly aggressive argument with White screaming at her mum. 'I didn't know if he was getting bodily however he was getting rowdy,' she says.
And as tensions and violence continued to rise in the residence, the connection disintegrated dramatically, with White ultimately serving a custodial sentence for an assault on Angie in 2014.
She had been left with a broken jaw, and had been strangled, and as a forensic psychologist ominously states within the documentary: 'As soon as a lady is strangled by her associate, that associate is seven occasions more more likely to go on to kill them.'
And, she goes on to notice, White by no means confirmed his anger in front of Molly, which means he might control it and knew when to and selected to be aggressive.
It turned clear that Daniel was a particularly violent particular person, with an extended history of being abusive and vile to ladies – while in prison Danny was charged with violent historic offences towards other ladies and sentenced to an extra 10 years in prison.
It was at this level where Angie would begin to get her life 'again', reuniting together with her family, and in search of a new life, enrolling at a college to review humanities and assembly greatest pal Nic Evans, who remembers: 'She simply needed to help individuals higher their lives, because she had every faith in everyone.'

Nevertheless, as Angie studied, she continued to go to White in prison on 'jail dates' wanting to offer him a second probability.
'I wasn't completely happy at first, but I might see that he was changing. I might see that he was a totally totally different individual from when he went in,' Molly says.
In Might 2021, White was launched from jail, with Molly recalling how 'nervous however excited' she and her mum have been, satisfied he had 'changed', and White quickly moved back into the family house.
And while issues went nicely at first, it wasn't lengthy earlier than, tragically, White's violent, controlling tendencies rose back to the surface, and their relationship went downhill, as soon as again.
'He'd increase his voice or throw a mug, he'd just lose his head for no cause in any respect,' Molly recollects in the documentary, earlier than revealing that she moved out in October 2022, when their deteriorating relationship impacted her own mental well being.
'They might argue around me after which they might convey me into it. I might stick with my companion, and Mum would message me to return residence, she doesn't really feel protected, she'd ask if she might sleep in my bed. It was an excessive amount of alone mental well being, so I needed to depart,' she says.
Meanwhile, Angie, who had despatched Nic terrifying messages saying White had 'pinned her down on the steps' and threatened to 'put her in a grave', and made her personal escape plan. Figuring out her relationship had come to an finish, she slept in a separate bedroom to White, putting a lock on the door and dwelling in a state of terror.
Nevertheless, on Saturday October, 22, after years of physical and mental abuse, White inflicted his remaining trauma on Angie, brutally murdering her in the midst of the night time.
He had pressured his approach by means of her locked bed room door, strangled her, earlier than going downstairs to get a knife, then returning to cut her throat, leaving bloody footprints throughout the ground.
Angie's injuries have been later described by docs as sharp drive trauma to the neck and a severed jugular vein.
'I simply shut down actually,' Molly heartbreakingly reflects, as footage from the hours and days that followed of White being interviewed by police airs.

'We have been capable of trace his actions all through their home and precisely what time it was. It was a gold mine of data to provide us a narrative, precisely what occurred just throughout those jiffy,' a police officer says.
The recordings of an audibly out-of-breath, physically exhausted White, as he returned to the kitchen to gather a knife, put him proper in the body for a pre-meditated, cold-blooded killing.
'What we consider that Daniel did to Angie would have been physically strenuous, so for him to have been out of breath there would have been what you anticipated. It simply doesn't sound like he can get anything out, with how out of breath he sounds.'

Angie's household and buddies have been left devastated by the loss, and White's choice not to attend courtroom, with Laura calling him a 'coward'.
Molly adds: 'It's exhausting figuring out that he was a second father to me. He wasn't nearly to take someone's life, he was capable of take the love of his life's life, but in addition someone he seems to as a daughter, he's just taken their mother away as properly.'
She goes on: 'Since my mum was cremated I've stored her within the automotive with me just so she could be with me wherever I'm going. The plan is to get a caravan and begin travelling the world, we all the time went to see waterfalls, so my plan is to only sprinkle her slightly bit in each waterfall, so she's all over the world.'
