Anne Stewart - Murdered by her distraught
mother after her father left for war. It's suspected this young girl was
killed first because she was stronger than her younger brother. The lack
of markings to the face and neck suggests a pillow was used to asphyxiate
her. Found next to her expired brother. Dead on Arrival. |

Nicholas Stewart - Also
killed in the same fashion as his older sister. The only injury found was
a broken rib, which was most likely caused during the attack. The inward
cracking of the rib coincides with forced trauma concentrated above the
rib. Perhaps his mother pressed on his chest to squeeze the air out of
his lungs. Dead on Arrival. |
