Couple accused of manslaughter of daughter repeatedly asked ‘where’s your child?’ during arrest

A mother who went on the run from police with her partner and newborn daughter was repeatedly asked “where is your child?” at the time of her arrest.

Constance Marten, 36, was tracked down by officers in Brighton along with Mark Gordon, 49, after the couple went off grid and were reportedly living in a tent with their baby, Victoria, in February 2023.
