Description

A crowd quickly gathered outside the Private Shop on Dilwyn Street, Swansea, following news of the horrific and shocking events of the morning. The body of 38 year old shop manager Sandra Phillips had been found inside in a pool of blood. The mother of four had been sexually assaulted, bludgeoned and strangled. Two homeless brothers, Wayne and Paul Darvell were among the onlookers in the crowd and were quickly arrested for the crime.  This was the beginning of a dark tale of lies and injustice that continues to haunt South Wales to this day.
