The fa­ther of 14-year-old An­drea Fran­cis says he was un­aware of the con­tents of her au­top­sy re­port and in­sists he could nev­er harm his chil­dren, even as in­ves­ti­ga­tors con­firmed the Ch­agua­nas teenag­er was mur­dered.

An­drea, of Phyl­lis Lane Ex­ten­sion, En­ter­prise Street, Long­denville, was found dead in her bed­room on Ju­ly 4, days af­ter re­ceiv­ing her SEA re­sults. A stu­dent of Long­denville Gov­ern­ment Pri­ma­ry School, she had earned a place at Cunu­pia High School. There were claims at the time that she may have self-harmed.

Guardian Me­dia vis­it­ed the fam­i­ly’s home yes­ter­day and spoke with her fa­ther, Andy Fran­cis, 44, who sat on the gallery and spoke through a bur­glar-proof gate.
