The 39-year-old then tried to burn her brother alive!
The shocking murder of a 65-year-old former nurse by her own daughter has caused shock in Britain.
Lucy Fox, 39, is accused of stabbing her mother to death, dismembering her body and then putting her severed limbs, including her head, in plastic bags, which she threw in the woods by a river.
Earlier, no, she had tried to burn her brother alive! The ruthless daughter reportedly murdered her mother in the kitchen of her home in Shifnal, Shropshire, and then used her bank card to buy a ready-made meal, whiskey and garbage bags, which she later put the severed limbs of.
Police were left stranded when they located the 65-year-old’s head in a plastic bag four weeks after her murder, before finding other parts of her body scattered around.
It is noted that the trunk and arms of the retired nurse have not yet been found.
Her daughter, Lucy, was accused of the heinous crime, but also of arson in order to endanger human life, while after her arrest she confessed to her heinous acts.

Nevertheless, she was deemed unfit to stand trial, as a result of which she had to go through an “evidence hearing”, where jurors would decide only on what she did and not on her motive or mental state at the time of the crime.
Therefore, the 39-year-old can not be found guilty of murder and arson, however after the jury’s decision, the judge will decide whether he should be hospitalized indefinitely in hospital.
Judge Kristina Montgomery told jurors they would be asked to decide if they were sure Fox had killed her mother.
However, the accused allegedly bought two knives from a Dunelm store before going to her mother’s house, where he stabbed her to death.
She then set fire to a door mat, trying to burn her brother alive.
Police who rushed to the house after a call for fire, did not find her mother anywhere, however the kitchen was full of blood.
There were red splashes from the ceiling to the drawers and behind the door, forcing the authorities to look for the owner of the house.
It did not take long for the tangle of the horrific case to unfold, as searches in the area identified its severed members.
Finally, it is worth noting that in addition to the two knives, a hammer, a saw and an ax, which he used to dismember her mother, were found in the unfortunate woman’s house.
