Her estranged husband Robert stands accused of both murder and preventing an inquest being held by disposing of her body.
The jury have now retired in the Joanna Brown murder trial.
Her estranged husband Robert stands accused of both murder and preventing an inquest being held by disposing of her body.
He has admitted killing her, but denies the charges, claiming he was suffering from a mental condition that seriously impaired his ability to exercise self-control.
The court heard how Joanna died following 14 blows from a claw hammer, she was discovered in woodland near to her Ascot mansion.
It’s all said to centre on a long running dispute to do with their divorce proceedings.
Joanna spent a large amount of her youth on the Isle of Man, her close family still live here.
A verdict is expected tomorrow (Friday).
