Police are investigating the death of former Conservative MP Ann Widdecombe, who is reported to have been found dead at her home on Dartmoor, Devon, on Thursday morning. Multiple outlets say detectives are focusing on her final messages and the minutes leading up to her death. According to reports, Widdecombe sent a last text message to staff at Channel 5 shortly before she died, and police believe she was attacked just minutes after sending it. One account says the final message was sent around 11 minutes before her death, suggesting a narrow window in which an assault may have occurred. Other reporting also points to efforts to reconstruct her movements and the circumstances around the time of the attack, including mention of a “mystery car” reportedly seen near the driveway at her rural property. Authorities are still piecing together what happened in her final hours and are continuing inquiries into the circumstances of the incident, with sources describing police work aimed at identifying and locating those responsible.
