A mum-of-four who was "frustrated to the point of desperation" with the benefits and housing systems was tragically found dead in her home after years of struggles over money and "uninhabitable" living conditions.
Karen McBride, 46, was prioritised for rehousing after being "wrongly pursued" over benefits debt and declaring herself homeless, her family claimed.
She was moved to Stalybridge, Tameside, with two of her children but the property was said to be "in a very poor state with a myriad of serious restoration work needing to be done."
