Tina Satchwell knew she “could never leave” her obsessive, controlling husband before she died and was buried in her sitting room, her half-sister told the Central Criminal Court.

“She knew she couldn’t get away from him,” Mrs Satchwell’s half-sister Lorraine Howard said. “She confided in me that he would follow her to the ends of the earth and there was no getting away from him.”
