Her corps was buried immediately it was found

“Comfort’s body was found TOTALLY naked. She was shredded off every clothing she had on, she was covered in blood. Blood on her legs, signs of strangulation on her neck and injuries to the head. Such wickedness!. All we want is justice for”
Yes. Comfort has been buried and gone but the pains in our hearts is still 100% present. I cannot even begin to describe how this affected our mental state. I still can't leave the house. There's no interest… No strength. My mum is still being pressured to eat something.
