Nurse Kelsey Pinhero was hoping her husband's wire animals had sold well when she agreed to meet up with curiosity shop owner Harry Simm on her day off.

In Mablethorpe on a cold frosty December Monday morning, Kelsey surprisingly found the shop door unlocked when her knocking went unanswered. She stepped inside to discover nobody about.

She did a quick search of the shop and his small flat upstairs. No Harry. Heading for his workshop outside in the yard, she discovered him propped up against a wall dressed only in his underpants. Dead.
