Stacey Hyde, who later changed her name to Anastasia Darlison, had her murder conviction overturned after five long years behind bars — but her struggles didn’t end when the prison doors opened. An inquest into her death has now revealed just how much she endured before her body finally gave out earlier this year.
At just 17, Stacey was jailed for killing her friend’s boyfriend. But after years of campaigning by Justice for Women, she was granted a retrial and cleared after convincing a jury she had acted in self-defence. She walked free — but as her family would later say, she never really escaped, reported Devon Live.
