A woman murdered her  parents and buried them in  their back garden with the help of her husband – then told their neighbours and relatives they had moved to Ireland for the ‘good air’, a court heard. William and Patricia Wycherley were each shot twice before being wrapped in bedding and ‘stacked’ one on top of the other under the lawn. Their debt-laden daughter Susan Edwards, 55, and her husband Christopher, 57, buried them after watching the Eurovision song contest on a bank holiday weekend in 1998, the court heard.
