Cossy

As stated on the last thread, I find this shocking?

I didn’t like her or her views, but I’d never ever wish an unlawful death on anyone.

Likewise Cossy she was not my favourite person but this is awful!!

Found with serious injuries. Looking for a white male in connection.

Oh, just read the BBC piece.
A white male is a suspect in her murder.
This is terrible.
Goodness knows how her loved ones must feel.

Oh surely not.

Fallingstar Fri 10-Jul-26 15:50:32

Oh no, why?
Are there suspicious circumstances?

Yes I first saw it on the telegraph but it is on the BBC now.

breaking news on the BBC news site that they are investigating her death.
I didn't always agree with her opinions of her politics but would hate that her death had been tragic .RIP.
