Hours after discovering his body lying cold on his bed, a mother described her son’s death as a “shame”, a court has been told.

In a recorded, informal police interview played to the court on Thursday, Ms Crabtree spoke of Jonathan’s death just hours after his body was discovered.

“It’s such a shame,” she said to detectives, speaking further of the time the family had travelled to America on a cruise.
