'He hasn't just taken Sharlotte's life he's taken my life'

Contains some scenes which some viewers may find upsetting.

Available for over a year

Bereaved mum Claire Reynolds shares what life’s been like since her daughter was killed. Sharlotte Naglis, six, died when John Owen's car mounted a pavement and struck her in Stoke-on-Trent in June 2021. He was found to have had twice the legal limit of alcohol, and cocaine in his system, and was jailed for more than six years after pleading guilty to causing death by dangerous driving. Reynolds is now campaigning for Sharlotte's Law, which would allow suspects' blood to be tested without consent following a fatal incident. This interview covers topics which some may find upsetting.
