A woman will be sentenced for murdering Phoenix Netts and concealing her dismembered body in two suitcases.
The Crown Prosecution Service told how Gordon contacted friends and family of Miss Netts through messages, emails and voice calls, pretending to be her and indicating she was moving to London. Gordon is also said to have purchased a circular saw to dismember the body of Miss Netts and made a number of trips to the Forest of Dean to dispose of the remains close to the Wales-England border. She was arrested after a member of the public reported suspicions to police about a vehicle driving near Coleford on the evening of May 12. Two police officers attended and saw Gordon standing close to Stowfield Quarry with two large suitcases, which contained the remains of Miss Netts.
