The killer of schoolgirl Emily Jones walked out of a mental health waiting room just two days before the horrifying attack, an inquest has heard.
Eltiona Skana slit the seven-year-old's throat after snatching her from her scooter in Queens Park, Bolton, on Mother's Day. Skana, a diagnosed paranoid schizophrenic, was later sentenced to life in prison after being convicted of manslaughter, by means of diminished responsibility.
An inquest is currently being held at Bolton Coroner's Court - more than three years on from Emily's death on March 22, 2020. Giving evidence today, Klestora Skana, Eltiona's sister, told the hearing she had taken her sister 'to see a doctor' just two days before the killing.
