S08E08 | Odessa Carey Jnr | The Manslaughter of Odessa Carey Snr

I tell the story of Odessa Carey Snr and Odessa Carey Jnr in this episode. In April 2019, Odessa Jnr murdered her mum, Odessa Snr, after attacking her with a mallet. She then removed her mum's head using scissors and knives before later removing her brain. After the murder, Odessa Jnr carried her mum's decapitated head around in a plastic carrier bag and reportedly kissed it on the forehead in front of a family friend. Judge Paul Sloan handed Odessa Jnr a hospital order on March 12, 2020, after deeming her not fit enough to stand trial. WARNING: This episode focuses heavily on Odessa Jnr's lifelong mental health issues and might be a difficult listen for some. **The following is NOT a sponsored message** If you are suffering from mental health problems or are concerned that someone you know is, please consider contacting the following charities: Mind (ENG & WAL): 0300 123 3393 The Scottish Association for Mental Health (SCO): 0344 800 0550 The Northern Ireland Association for Mental Health (NI): 028 9032 8474 / 00353 42 938 5736 For all things British Murders, please visit my website:⁣ https://www.britishmurders.com/⁣ Intro music:⁣ David John Brady - 'Throw Down the Gauntlet'⁣ https://linktr.ee/davidjohnbradymusic⁣ References:⁣ www.britishmurders.com/odessacarey/ Learn more about your ad choices.
