The family of a mum-of-one who died after being hit by a train say she was 'let down' by police. Kiena Dawes, 23, was found dead on train tracks last Friday (July 22) having left her nine-month-old daughter, Marine, with a close friend just hours before.
This tragic incident took place just 11 days after she was allegedly assaulted by a man who she should have been protected from by police, her family say. Her brother, Kynan, has since paid tribute to an 'amazing young girl' and said that she just wanted a 'happy life'.
Kynan also shared shocking new photos of a bloodied and bruised Kiena following an alleged assault which came despite police having recently fitted panic alarms in her home. He has heavily criticised Lancashire Police after they referred themselves to a watchdog due to their contact with the mum before her death.
