Appearing at Liverpool Magistrates' Court today, March 13, in a grey jogging suit, Bennett spoke only to confirm her name and address.
No application was made for bail, and she was remanded in custody awaiting a further hearing at Liverpool Crown Court on April 11. However, it was mentioned that she may appear in court at an earlier date to be arranged following a bail application.
Police remained on Carr Lane East on Sunday, with a blue forensic tent set up outside the front door of the house and a tarpaulin pulled across the entrance. The court heard the investigation remains ongoing, with officers carrying out CCTV enquiries.
