Described as fun-loving, popular and family-oriented, five hours later she was found dead in her own car with her throat slit — a crime which remains unsolved since 1991.

Veronica Anderson, often known as Vera, was a 42-year-old single mother residing in Widnes, Cheshire. She was well-liked in her community and co-ran a sandwich business with her teenage daughter, supplying local shops and factories. On the night of August 24, 1991, Veronica was at home with her two children. Her daughter, Lorraine, was 19 and pregnant, while her son, Neil, was just seven years old. At around 10pm, Veronica received a phone call. The identity of the caller has never been established, but whatever was said prompted her to ask a neighbour to look after her son Neil, explaining she would be back in about 10 minutes. Roughly ten minutes after she received the phone call, Veronica left her home and headed out in her blue Ford Cortina — she was never seen alive again. In the early hours of August 25, 1991, Veronica's body was discovered in her car off Tannery Lane in Penketh, Warrington, more than four miles from her home. She had been brutally murdered — her throat was cut, and there were signs of a violent struggle. A blood-stained glove and a length of cord, similar to window sash cord, were found at the scene — both believed to have been left by her killer. The attack was neither sexual nor a robbery, but the level and nature of the violence had the hallmarks of a hitman. Despite extensive investigations, the person responsible for her murder has never been identified or brought to justice. Over the years, the case has remained unsolved, despite renewed appeals and even arrests. 5 A glove similar to the one found at the murder scene of Veronica Anderson Credit: Cheshire Police At the time of her death, Vera had been seeing a trucker for about three years. The man, who was eliminated from inquiries, stayed overnight at her home on August 23, 1991. In September 2024, Vera's daughter Lorraine Newton made a fresh plea for justice, saying: "It would be fantastic if the police could get someone for the murder. "It would be a form of relief to think they have got what they deserved." She continued: "I still hope that one day the culprit will get the justice they deserve. 5 "I would say to anyone who knows who did it to speak to the police. He has got away with this for so long and he could do it again. "Somebody knows — maybe his wife — if they do I don't know how they could live with that for 33 years. It is a very hard secret to keep. "She might have been threatened of course — 'open your mouth and I'm going to do it to you'." Media coverage The case has been featured in media and true crime programs, including reconstructions on Crimewatch. An episode of In The Footsteps of Killers examines the case of Veronica Anderson's unsolved murder. Emilia Fox and David Wilson investigate the mother-of-two's tragic demise. In The Footsteps of Killers: The Murder of Vera Anderson airs on Channel 4 at 10pm on Tuesday, July 1, 2025.

The Vivienne lay dead in bath 'for days' after hiding ketamine relapse
An inquest into the death of tragic drag sensation The Vivienne, whose real name was James Lee Williams, has been held today with a verdict of misadventure recorded RuPaul's Drag Race star The Vivienne was discovered in a 'murky' bathtub by a neighbour after lying dead in the water for a couple of days, an inquest into their death has heard. The tragic star, whose real name was James Lee Williams, died aged 32 earlier this year, stunning the showbiz world. On January 6, Cheshire Police said officers had been called to an address in Chorlton-by-Backford, near Chester, on the previous day following reports of a sudden death. The coroner said that, on the balance of probabilities, it is likely that James died on Friday evening and was not found and pronounced dead until the Sunday. Delivering her verdict, she added: 'I am satisfied that James Lee Williams' death was a misadventure. He took ketamine but he did not intend to end his own life.' Speaking at Cheshire Coroner's Court today, Janine Gobold was alerted when their friends got in touch to ask if she had seen them. Deciding she would use her key to check on the TV favourite, she told the inquest about the devastating find after entering the property with her son. She said in court: "I went into the kitchen and Ryan went into the living room, we were calling his name and there was no answer. All the lights were on. As we got to the top of the stairs, Ryan went one way and I turned right. James' bedroom is there and there is a door to the ensuite. "I looked at James' bed which was all ruffled, I initially thought Panda [Mr Williams' dog] had ragged the quilt on the bed. 'And then I walked past James' bed and into the bathroom and saw James in the bath, he just looked like he was sleeping." 'I ran over to them and put my hand under their head to stop their face going into the water. I screamed for Ryan, telling them they needed to call for an ambulance and to get some help. I kept hold of James because I didn't want their face in the water, I kept talking to them. Ryan came in the room and he was saying 'mum, I can't come in.' 'So I gently lay James back to take the call from the 999, she asked me some questions and asked me to try and get the patient out of the bath. I tried to take the weight of his body, I told Ryan to go and get my partner Mike. I said he needed to phone Bobby and that we needed help. Then I just sat with James and made sure their head didn't go under the water.' The performer was laid to rest at a church in Bodelwyddan in Denbighshire, North Wales - where they are originally from. In March, the family of the drag star confirmed that they had died from a cardiac arrest caused by the effects of taking Ketamine. DS Thomas Philpotts, who was the senior investigating officer in the case of James' death, describes entering the bathroom. He suspected he had been dead for some time. The officer wanted to establish if there were any suspicious circumstances or any third party involvement. He began a search of the house. He says while searching James' bedroom there was a small bag that appeared to have previously contained drugs. In the bathroom, James' phone was on the floor next to the bath and there was a bin with several more packets that were suspected to have had drugs in. He suspects they were used before James had got into the bath, over a period of time. He says: 'Everything I was told led me to believe that James had been in the bath since Friday night.' He says his hypothesis was that it was likely that James had died from a medical episode, possibly brought on by drug use, or had possibly drowned in the bath. He says he was satisfied there were no suspicious circumstances or third party involvement.
