As one in four women and one in six men will experience domestic abuse in their lifetime, reporter Samantha Poling explores how the issue is being tackled in Scotland today. The programme shows the first ever footage of Scotland's only domestic abuse court at work. Samantha meets victims who feel let down by those they turned to for help, while there is also a look at offenders who are having to undergo behavioural therapy to curb their violence towards their partners.
