Remains found after wildfire identified as mum-of-three missing for seven years
–
Neutral summary
Police have confirmed that human remains found in woodland in south-west London after a wildfire belong to Joanne Sheen, a 44-year-old mother of three from Southampton who disappeared nearly seven years ago. The remains were discovered on the evening of August 12 near Padstow Walk in Feltham, prompting detectives to launch a murder investigation, which has now been taken over by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary. A 56-year-old man from Southampton was arrested on Thursday on suspicion of conspiracy to commit murder and remains in police custody. Ms Sheen was last seen on December 5, 2019, travelling from Fareham to Southampton, and was reported missing by her family in February. The Mirror reports that detectives suspect she died as part of a plot involving more than one killer, and Crimestoppers has reinstated a £20,000 reward for information.
