Constance Marten moans she's ‘treated like a killer' in jail & brands inmates and lawyers ‘Dementors' from Harry Potter
She claimed the lawyers were making 'angels look like devils' SICK RANT Constance Marten moans she's 'treated like a killer' in jail & brands inmates and lawyers 'Dementors' from Harry Potter Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Constance Marten has complained that she's "treated like a killer" in jail and brands her prosecutors like soul-sucking "Dementors." Posh prisoner Marten, 38, and Mark Gordon, 51, were convicted of gross negligence manslaughter after the death of their baby girl. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 7 Constance, 38, was convicted of the gross negligent manslaughter of her daughter Victoria today Credit: Central News 7 Her partner Mark Gordon, 51, was also convicted of gross negligent manslaughter Credit: Central News 7 The baby died while the couple lived 'off-grid' in freezing conditions Credit: Central News 7 Constance Marten told police that Victoria had died after she fell asleep while holding her Credit: Central News In a bitter rant to The View Magazine, a publication promoting reform for women in custody, Marten moaned about being 'treated like a killer' in jail. This is despite being found guilty over the death of her baby daughter. Marten and rapist boyfriend Gordon were convicted after their newborn Victoria was found dead in a Lidl shopping bag. Speaking from behind bars, Marten was very critical of her prosecutors and bizarrely told the prison magazine that they reminded her of the soul-sucking creatures in Harry Potter. She said: "It was his voice. I just couldn't bear it anymore. "Tom Little and Joel Smith remind me of Dementors from Harry Potter. "There's no empathy. I felt like I was being grilled as a serial killer." The 37-year-old aristocrat is locked up in HMP Bronzefield alongside notorious child murderers Lucy Letby and Beinash Batool following a four-month retrial at the Old Bailey. She complained about being spoken to like a child and accused legal teams of trying to 'make angels look like devils and devils appear angelic'. Marten added: "They all use this disgusting tone, like they're reprimanding a small child. Aristocrat Constance Marten and her convicted rapist partner have been found guilty of killing their newborn baby "I've heard them laugh and joke with others, but with me, it's always condescending. "I just shut down because no one wants to be spoken to like that. People say, 'Oh, they're just doing their job', but they're not. "They're paid to make angels look like devils and devils appear angelic." The mum barely mentioned her daughter, who prosecutors believe died from hypothermia or suffocation in a flimsy tent after the couple went on the run. Marten and Gordon sparked a nationwide manhunt in early 2023 after fleeing with their newborn, desperate to avoid the baby being taken into care like their previous four children. When asked about using pseudonyms while off-grid, she gave the excuse: "The police give people aliases all the time under witness protection. "That doesn't make me a liar. I was trying to protect myself and Victoria." Marten gave birth to Victoria without seeking any medical assistance in early 2022 and kept her "their little secret". The infant had hardly any clothes or "means of keeping or remaining warm". Victoria, who spent 'much of her life' in a Lidl bag for life, was tragically discovered dumped among rubbish in a shed near Brighton. A jury found the pair guilty of gross negligence manslaughter after hearing harrowing details of how they ignored warnings and lived 'off-grid'. In a police interview, Marten later said: "I had her in my jacket and I hadn't slept properly in quite a few days and erm, I fell asleep holding her sitting up and she, when I woke up, she wasn't alive." Jurors were told Marten had been warned by social workers about the risk of falling asleep with a baby lying on her and that a tent was unsuitable. Both she and Gordon lost their appeal against the child cruelty convictions and are due to be sentenced in September. This comes as... Marten was a former Tatler 'It Girl" and her family had close links to the Royals. But her life spiralled out of control after she and Gordon, 51, met by chance in a North London incense shop in 2014. The couple went off the radar from her friends and family and formed their own self-styled cult living apart from society, with Constance even posing as an Irish traveller when she attended hospital while pregnant. Constance also travelled the world and went to festivals including Burning Man and Wireless, saying: 'Dance is my oxygen.' She spent her summer holidays in 2010 working for a film production company in Cairo. One of her colleagues there described her as being 'very decent, nice and friendly' and having 'great potential'. But she added that Constance sometimes chose the 'wrong' type of man, adding: 'She was somehow gullible.' During the trial, it was revealed that Gordon was convicted of a series of sexual offences - including rape - while living in the US. Gordon, who was 14 at the time, broke into the house of a next door neighbour wearing a nylon stocking over his face and armed with a knife and hedge clippers. He demanded the woman undress and attempted to rape her before carrying out the vile offences in the April 1989 horror. The victim of his crime told the BBC she was "floored" when she found out the man who attacked her 36 years ago was on the run from police in the UK in 2023. She said: "The four-and-a-half hours I spent with him was enough to know he is evil." On May 21 the same year, Gordon broke into another home with a shovel and battered a man inside. The fiend was sentenced in the US to 40 years in prison, of which he served 22 years. In 2017, Gordon was convicted of assaulting two female police officers at a maternity unit in Wales. Jurors were not told that Gordon was also suspected of a incident of domestic violence in 2019 which left Marten with a shattered spleen. 7 In 2021 a judge ordered her four children should be adopted, shortly before she fell pregnant with Victoria Credit: Central News 7 The couple would carry Victoria around in a Lidl bag after getting rid of their pram Credit: Central News 7 Her arrest came following a 54-day manhunt Credit: Central News

Drink driver, 32, told cops ‘I am f****d' after crashing into two parked cars and trying to flee with mum and stepdad
DRINK DRIVE SHAME Drink driver, 32, told cops 'I am f****d' after crashing into two parked cars and trying to flee with mum and stepdad Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A DRINK-DRIVER said 'I am f***ed' to police officers after smashing into two parked cars and trying to flee the scene with her mum and stepdad. Chanelle Powell, 32, crashed her Vauxhall Astra on Station Road in Little Sutton, Cheshire, on June 23 while more than double the drink-drive limit. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 5 Chanelle Powell, 32, was caught drink-driving Credit: Cavendish 5 She was found double the legal limit last month Credit: Cavendish 5 Powell crashed her vehicle on Station Road in Little Sutton, Cheshire Credit: Cavendish She wrote off one car and damaged another before being picked up in a van by her parents and driven away. A judge suggested Powell did a runner to avoid being brethalysed. When cops caught up with her moments later, she reportedly broke down and repeatedly said: 'I am f***ed.' Cheshire Police was tipped off by witnesses who saw Powell flee the crash scene in a Vauxhall van. The smashed-up Astra had one wheel hanging off, and another car, a BMW, was also damaged in the collision. Prosecutor Michelle Dodd told the court that Powell crashed into a BMW, which ended up nearly sideways on a wall. She said the main victim's car was a total write-off with over £6,000 of damage. The BMW ended up needing £500 worth of repairs and Powell's Astra was wrecked. Officers stopped the vehicle nearby and found Powell in the passenger seat looking visibly shaken. She gave a positive roadside breath test and was arrested on the spot. Paul Ince BANNED from driving as he pleads guilty to drink-drive offence The legal alcohol limit is 35mg, Powell's test reading came up as 79mg, more than double. She told officers she had been drinking beer after work because she was 'stressed' following a hospital appointment. Powell later claimed her mum and stepdad were just passing by and had picked her up 'to comfort her'. But a judge ruled she had knowingly fled to avoid being tested for driving under the influence. He told her: 'I am quite certain you fled the scene because you knew you would fail a breath test.' Cops were met by several members of the public who said the driver 'was clearly intoxicated' before fleeing. She confessed to drink-driving and failing to stop after an accident at Chester Magistrates' Court. She was slapped with a 16-month driving ban and a 12-month community order. The 32-year-old was also ordered to carry out 200 hours of unpaid work. The probation officer said Powell had been working from home that day and drank three or four beers after finishing work. She was reportedly using alcohol as 'a coping mechanism'. Powell admitted it had been a 'lapse in judgment' and accepted that what she did was wrong. The judge told her she posed a danger to other road users that night and that her ban will remain in place until she passes an extended retest. 5 Powell now has a 16-month driving ban Credit: Cavendish
