A scrap of paper with biblical quotes was found with a headless body dumped hundreds of miles away from her home.

Mee Kuen Chong, from Wembley, was found dead in a Devon woodland by holiday makers on June 27 last year.

The 67-year-old’s fractured skull was found in undergrowth a few metres away from the body near Bennet Road in Salcombe.

The prosecution claim she had been dumped there by her alleged killer Jemma Mitchell, 38, during a 500-mile round trip from London.

She told jurors: “It was apparent that the head and at least the first two bones that form the spine were absent.”

The larynx at the front of the neck was also missing, she said.

Ms Chong was wearing a Marks and Spencer jacket with various items in the pocket including a plastic wallet, Oyster card and business cards for a GP, dentist and evangelical church.

There were also small pieces of paper torn from a notepad with a quote from the Bible on them, jurors were told.

The prosecution alleged Mitchell murdered vulnerable Ms Chong at her Wembley house on June 11 last year and then faked her will to get money to pay for repairs to her own home.

On June 26 last year, Mitchell drove a rental car to Devon, where it is alleged she deposited Ms Chong’s body.

The court heard how Ms Chong had a history of mental ill health dating back to 2015 when she was noted in GP records as having schizo-affective disorder and acute stress.

Last week the court was told Ms Chong believed she had a YouTube relationship with Prince Charles and that they communicated over the video sharing platform.

Dr Callan said that Ms Chong had sent a number of “bizarre” letters addressed to both the Prince of Wales and Boris Johnson about running the country.

According to the records, she suffered an episode of mania with psychotic symptoms in 2017 but by the next year her condition had stabilised and she was discharged by community mental health team.

In May 2021, records indicate she had paranoid schizophrenia.

Former osteopath Mitchell, from Willesden, has denied murder and the trial continues.
