Police believe the baby whose remains were found in the Constance Marten and Mark Gordon investigation “had been dead for several weeks” and they have been unable to confirm whether it was a boy or a girl, a detective has said.
The couple refused to reveal the location of the child and were arrested on suspicion of child neglect, and rearrested the following day on suspicion of gross negligence manslaughter. Speaking at a press conference on Thursday, the senior investigating officer said police believed the baby “may have been dead for some time” and that the case had been referred to the police watchdog, the Independent Office for Police Conduct .
“Despite this, based on the inquiries we’ve carried out so far, we believe, sadly, the baby had been dead for several weeks before they were found. It’s too early for us to provide a more specific date. Marten is from a wealthy aristocratic family with connections to the royal family and was a drama student before meeting Gordon in 2016. The couple had been missing since 5 January when their car was found abandoned and on fire next to the M61 in Bolton.

RBA giving the nation ‘brain damage’: Mark Bouris unleashes on Philip LoweYellow Brick Road Home Loans Executive Chairman Mark Bouris says the Reserve Bank of Australia is giving the nation 'brain damage' over their handling of inflation. “One minute there saying interest rates are not going up until 2024, go borrow money at fixed rates at 0.2 per cent and you’ll be sweet,” Mr Bouris told Sky News Australia. 'The next minute there telling us we have to control inflation, we’ve got to control wages, we are just going to keep putting rates up. Mr Bouris he does not believe Governor Philip Lowe and the RBA really 'know what they're doing'. 'They're crossing their fingers hoping they're going to get it right”. Hilarious.. LOL, no one had a bad word for the RBA when they reduced the interest rates to nearly zero. Yet as soon as they increase interest rates to slow inflation down, which is known to work and used worldwide. They are giving everyone brain damage. Nonsense, everyone knew it was coming. Starting to bite the home loan industry, eh ... ?
