Chingford woman jailed for murdered

IT WAS A LIFE sentence for Carol Campling, 39, when she appeared at the Old Bailey for sentencing on 21st June.

Campling, of Garenne Court, Warren Road, E4, had been found guilty just two weeks previously of murderering her neighbour, Mark Smith, in February last year.

Detective Inspector John Marriott, of the Homicide and Major Crime Command, said, “Campling launched a vicious attack on Mark with broken bottles, scissors and an ashtray before leaving him to die. She has always failed to own up to her actions but will now have a long time in prison to think about the consequences of what she did that night.

“This is an awful case in which drug use and consumption of extremely excessive quantities of alcohol by Campling and the victim were a significant factor. Our thoughts remain with the family of Mark at this difficult time.”
