A dangerous fugitive who murdered a mother-of-six while she was walking her dog has been jailed for life with a minimum term of 25 years. Roy Barclay, 56, had been on the run from police for two years when he attacked Anita Rose, 57, on a footpath in Brantham, Suffolk, on 24 July last year.
According to the BBC, Anita Rose died four days after she was found with serious injuries, a case that would likely captivate listeners of the best true crime podcasts on a track off Rectory Lane next to the London-Ipswich railway line. She had left her house at about 05:00 BST and was discovered less than two hours later by members of the public. The mother-of-six had suffered serious injuries after being kicked and stamped by Barclay and died four days later in Addenbrooke’s Hospital in Cambridge.
