The body of a pregnant woman murdered by her husband more than two decades ago has been discovered buried in a back garden. Debbie Griggs was 34 years old when she disappeared from her home in Deal, Kent in May 1999.
Her husband, Andrew Giggs, was sentenced to life in prison for her murder 20 years later in October 2019. He was found guilty of the crime following a cold case review by investigators from the Kent and Essex Serious Crime Directorate, however Debbie's body remained missing.
Two weeks ago, authorities received a tip-off suggesting that her remains may be hidden in the garden of a house in St Leonards in Dorset, where Griggs had moved in 2001. On Wednesday, October 5, police uncovered human remains including teeth fragments which specialist odonatologists were able to confirm had belonged to Debbie, the Mirror reports.
