Chelmsford murder probe: Human remains found at defendant’s home
Human remains have been found at a home in Pump Hill, Chelmsford.
The remains are believed to be those of a couple, whose daughter is charged with their murder.
Police were called to the address in Chelmsford on Wednesday over concerns for the welfare of two people in their 70s, who were missing.
Their daughter, Virginia McCullough, 35, appeared before magistrates on Monday accused of murdering John and Lois McCullough between 2018 and 2023.
She is due in court again later. Speaking on Monday, Det Supt Rob Kirby said formal identification of the bodies was yet to take place and a police presence would remain in the road, in Great Baddow, in the “coming days”.
