About

She was 94 years old, a strong, determined grandmother battling dementia. Yet despite her diagnosis, Mary Gregory’s independent spirit meant she continued living alone in her modest bungalow in Lancashire, England. When a house fire tragically claimed her life in May 2018, it was written off as nothing more than a heartbreaking accident—a sad end to a long and well-loved life.But just one year later, a comment made during a counselling session would open the door to something far darker. Something no one in her family could have imagined.In this episode, I explore the death of Mary Gregory, the investigation that followed, and the disturbing confession that turned a tragic fire into a calculated act of betrayal. What drives someone to take the life of a woman who only ever showed them kindness?★ To see todays case photos head over to the Cup of Coffee and Crime Facebook Discussion Group★ To support the show and keep me caffeinated, you are now able to Buy Me a Coffee :)Music from #Uppbeat :https://uppbeat.io/t/ak/midnight-strollLicense code: OCHNSIEQIVR5SLQ7★ To see todays case photos head over to the Cup of Coffee and Crime Facebook Discussion Group★ To support the show and keep me caffeinated, you are now able to Buy Me a Coffee :)★ Taking a few minutes to complete a quick survey is such a huge way to help http://bit.ly/cupofcoffeeandcrime-surveyMusic from #Uppbeat :https://uppbeat.io/t/ak/midnight-strollLicense code: OCHNSIEQIVR5SLQ7 Hosted on Acast.
