Three weeks after her death, Miss Adams’ friend, Kimberley Edwards, visited Monaghan to discuss funeral arrangements, the court heard.
He wanted to put their favourite photo of them together in her coffin and, as he took it out of a frame, two folded letters fell out of the back.
One was purportedly a letter from Miss Adams to her child from “Mummy”. The second was typewritten, dated two days before her death, an apparent suicide note.
Duncan Smith QC, prosecuting, suggested Miss Adams “lived for” her young child but it was “odd” that she made no mention of her in the alleged suicide note.
There was however mention of Logan and Ruby, Monaghan’s children.
He said Miss Adams’ signature on the letter was a “cut and paste” and Monaghan then “staged” it being found, with his fingerprints discovered on the letter but not those of Miss Adams.
