Tragedy struck on Wednesday (March 1) after police uncovered the remains of a baby in woodland close to where Constance Marten and Mark Gordon were arrested.
The pair had been on the run for 53 days, leading police on a nationwide manhunt to trace them after their car caught fire on the M61 near to Bolton and was found abandoned on the hard shoulder, back on January 5.
Despite the damage to the scorched car, crews found a placenta on the back seat of the vehicle with police believing that a baby had been born in the car just one or two days earlier.
