Man admits killing mum and toddler before burying their bodies 'in concrete' at Dundee house
A murder accused 'killed' a mum and her daughter and concealed their bodies 'in concrete' underneath a kitchen floor, a court heard. Andrew Innes, 52, accepted he caused the deaths of 25-year-old Bennylyn Burke and two-year-old Jellica at a house at the city’s Troon Avenue, Dundee in 2021.
However, prosecutors claim that he murdered the two women. The Crown also claims that Mr Innes abducted another girl and held her against her will at his home. He then allegedly raped the girl and forced her to perform a sex act on him whilst in the presence of Jellica. A clerk of court read out a legal document detailing the charges. Jurors heard her say that prosecutors claim that between February 20 2021 and March 5 2021, at 21 Troon Avenue Dundee, Mr Innes stabbed Bennylyn Burke on the body with a knife.
He allegedly forced her to remove her clothing and forced her to perform a sex act on him. Mr Innes also allegedly did “bind” the girl’s wrists with “handcuffs” and covered her mouth with a “sock and tape”. He is also said to have put the naked body of Jellica in rubble bags and concealed her body in concrete beneath the kitchen floor and 21 Troon Avenue, Dundee. He is also said to have removed flooring and kitchen units from 21 Troon Avenue, Dundee and discarded the items in a skip.
He also allegedly pretended to the two police officers that the other girl was his daughter and was called Lorna Innes. It’s also claimed that Innes planned to flee 21 Troon Avenue, Dundee with the girl and harbour her elsewhere “against her will”. Mr Morgan told the jurors how Bennylyn weighed five stones and seven pounds and was four feet six inches tall.
The jurors also heard how on March 23 2021, a post mortem was conducted on the body of Jellica. She was found to weigh 14.1 kilos and “measured 89.3 centimetres in length”.
