The penniless family of murdered Bennylyn Burke held a memorial for her surrounded by the charred remains of their destroyed home in the Philippines. It was ravaged by fire just days before her ashes were returned to them from Scotland where she was killed along with her two-year-old daughter Jellica by paedophile IT worker Andrew Innes.
Heartbreaking images show her grieving relatives lighting candles and surrounding the 25-year-old’s remains, which were inside a cardboard box wrapped in plastic. Bennylyn, 25, moved to the UK in search of a better life after growing up in the Philippines in poverty.
She met Innes just days before he killed her and her toddler daughter on February 21, 2021 and raped another child. The sadistic murderer buried their bodies under the kitchen floor at his Dundee home.
