Joan Kathleen Turnell gave police a chilling response when she was stopped.
A woman was stopped by police after she was spotted pushing her dead daughter's body through a busy shopping centre.
Housing association staff visited the flat Joan and Tracey shared. However, the pensioner refused them access to her home. According to the Romford Recorder, Joan wrapped Tracey's body in a red coat and took it to the shopping centre, in a bid to prove her daughter was still alive. When Joan was stopped by authorities, she chillingly remarked: "Why can't they just leave us alone? We have been fine and I have been looking after her."
She was also not prosecuted for preventing the burial of her daughter. Writing to the court, the pensioner said she does not know what caused Tracey's death, and that she didn't call for an ambulance as they "could not help". Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!
