"Nancy Pexton stabbed her sister Jennifer Abbott 10 times, leaving her body for three days in her flat. Abbott was found with a large slash-type wound across her neck."
"The missing Rolex watch, a gift from Abbott's son, was later recovered by police from Pexton's bag. Pexton claimed she was given it to look after."
"Carlson testified about the bubbling resentment between his mother and aunt, noting interactions filled with anger and hostility, which culminated in the tragic murder."
"In a message from November 2024, Pexton ominously told Abbott, 'You know I was planning to kill you but it was just a thought, I would never hurt you.'"
Nancy Pexton, 70, was found guilty of murdering her sister Jennifer Abbott, 69, by stabbing her 10 times and stealing her Rolex watch. Abbott was last seen alive on June 10, 2022, returning home with her dog. Pexton visited Abbott's flat shortly after and later reported an overdose, leading to her hospitalization. Abbott's body was discovered three days later, partially naked and with gaffer tape over her mouth. The missing Rolex was found in Pexton's possession. Tensions between the sisters were noted, with evidence of resentment and threats exchanged prior to the murder.
