VALERIE'S LAW VALERIE FORDE AND HER 23-MONTH-OLD DAUGHTER WERE BRUTALLY MURDERED BY VALERIE’S EX-PARTNER ROLAND MCKOY IN 2014. SIX WEEKS PRIOR TO THEIR MURDER, VALERIE REPORTED MCKOY’S THREATS TO POLICE BUT THIS WAS CARELESSLY RECORDED AS A THREAT TO PROPERTY RATHER THAN A THREAT TO LIFE.
VALERIE HAD GIVEN HER EX-PARTNER UNTIL THE 31ST OF MARCH TO LEAVE THEIR HOME FOR A FRESH START FOR THE FAMILY IN APRIL.
