Dramatic moment daughter clasps her dying mother's hand and forces her to sign over her

EXCLSIVE: Margaret Baverstock, 76, was so ill she could 'barely flicker an eyelid' in March 2021 when she was 'forced' to sign a will by her daughter Lisa.

Baby Callum's mother tearfully admits killing her newborn son, 27 years after his body was

A mother today admitted killing her newborn son whose body was discovered in woodland almost 27 years ago.
