In­ves­ti­ga­tors sus­pect drugs may have played a role in the hor­rif­ic mur­der of Siparia grand­moth­er Joanne Estick, whose sev­ered head was dis­cov­ered at the road­side last Thurs­day. How­ev­er, no ar­rests have been made, and the rest of her body re­mains miss­ing.

Estick, 60, was last seen alive around 12.30 pm on March 12, walk­ing through Sen­non Vil­lage, Siparia. Just days lat­er, around 1.15 pm on Thurs­day, Cpl Patrice and PC Cum­mings of the South West­ern Di­vi­sion Task Force were on pa­trol in the area when some­one di­rect­ed them to a green bag in a drain at Sen­non Vil­lage #3.

Up­on ar­rival, the of­fi­cers found a fly-cov­ered bag rest­ing on a con­crete drain by the road­side. In­side, they dis­cov­ered a small white plas­tic cool­er, par­tial­ly open, con­tain­ing Estick’s sev­ered head.
