Reflecting on Tonica's decision to kill her husband, Katie added: 'I'd never experienced trauma or abuse until I was attacked, but that's not the case for these women behind bars.

'Lots of the women in this film were in a situation of kill or be killed, obviously that isn't a path that I took but maybe if my childhood had been different, who knows?'
Katie Piper: Locked Up In Louisiana airs on U&W from April 27.
