Mum heartbroken as housing developer 'trashes' memorial to her four murdered sons

A mum who was forced to listen to her four little boys being killed by their own dad is heartbroken after finding their memorial garden 'trashed' by a housing developer.

Sam Tolley, from Winsford, Cheshire lost her four sons - Joshua, seven, Thomas, six, Callum, five, and Daniel, three - in 2003. The boys were murdered by their father Keith Young, who forced his wife to listen via phone as he took the lives of their children before taking his own.

A memorial garden was set up in memory of the children at Handley Hill Primary School where they were pupils. But this week Sam was 'devastated' when she discovered that Linden Homes had destroyed the garden, telling CheshireLive it had been 'trashed'.
