Headlines in the UK have been dominated this week by the murder of Ann Widdecombe, as counter-terrorism police announced they were taking over the investigation. The announcement of Widdecombe’s death sparked a plethora of tributes; the announcement of her murder later that day was a wave of shock.
In recent announcements, police have made it clear that they believe the “brutal” attack to have been targeted, and have arrested a 28-year-old man in South Yorkshire.
Masses were said for the repose of the soul of Ann Widdecombe, who was a devout Catholic, at Westminster Cathedral and Buckfast Abbey on Saturday, July 11. We ask you to join the Church in praying for the repose of her soul.
