A disabled man violently attacked a ******* worker before dumping her body in a canal with the help of his daughter, a murder trial has heard.
Chereiss Bailey was found dead near a waterway off Ryders Green Road in West Bromwich on 29 September last year.
John Anslow, 65, and his daughter Hayley-Marie Ferguson, 42, both from West Bromwich, are accused of placing Bailey's corpse in a wheelchair and adding paving slabs before pushing it into the water.
Anslow has admitted preventing a lawful and decent burial but denies murdering Bailey. Ferguson, who is not accused of murder, has pleaded not guilty to preventing a lawful and decent burial and another charge of ******* isting an offender.
On the opening day of the trial, Birmingham Crown Court heard Bailey, who was 36, was last seen on the afternoon of 27 September, two days before her body was found.
