Residents in the Heartease district of Manchester were stunned on Thursday when they found the body of 36-year-old Shanna-Lee Bailey in a pool of blood in her house.
Bailey’s uncle, Stafford Clayton, who said that he saw his niece every morning when he went to exercise, was in emotional pain when The Gleaner visited his home yesterday.
Later in the morning, Bailey said he drove past the house while taking someone to the hospital and saw one of the children having a bath outside.
The accused, who could not be found immediately after Bailey’s body was discovered, was mobbed by residents in the evening and eventually rescued by the police.
Clayton said Bailey and the accused were not living together, but he would visit her home and even ask him (Clayton) to intervene when the two were having disagreements.
