78-year-old former Tory minister and Brexit Party MEP Ann Widdecombe was found dead at her home in Haytor on Dartmoor on July 9th. According to authorities at the time the popular conservative suffered ‘serious injuries’ causing her brutal death. She was murdered on July 8th.
She had been due to appear via Zoom on a Channel 5 program that afternoon, but last made contact with the production team at 12:19 pm and failed to join the call.
The assassin from Rotherham drove his car to her home and rang the bell. When the elderly woman answered, the wicked leftist pushed his way into her home and bludgeoned her to death.
At first, local Devon and Cornwall Police alleged the murder was not politically motivated, but that call was obviously wrong.
Reform UK party, on their part, insisted that the attack may have been motivated by Widdecombe’s politics – a claim that was later vindicated.
Neighbors and sources have portrayed him as withdrawn and unremarkable in public life
Officials later announced that the death was being treated as terrorism.
Police found newspaper clippings about Nigel Farage and Reform UK (a right-wing populist party) in his home. This discovery contributed to counter-terrorism police becoming involved in the inquiry.
The UK’s Counter-terrorism police took control of the investigation into her death after ‘new information and evidence’ came to light.
On Monday, authorities arrested Joshua Kerry. The 28-year-old alleged assassin will appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court Tuesday morning.
