Your Safety & Security Magazine
Servamus May 2024
Our homes and our families are the places where we are supposed to feel and be safe. Unfortunately, revenge, greed and manipulation by parents contribute to serious crime within family structures. The May 2024 issue of Servamus focusses on topics where vulnerable family members are exploited by their own family members who have ill-intentions – often resulting in their death.
