A couple whose newborn daughter died while they were on the run from authorities and living off-grid carried her around in a Lidl “bag for life” before dumping her “as if she was refuse”, a court has heard.
The daughter of Constance Marten, 36, and Mark Gordon, 49, was found in the shopping bag covered in rubbish in a disused shed after the couple attempted to evade authorities and conceal the birth, an Old Bailey jury was told on Thursday.
