CCTV footage shows murdered woman

Police have released CCTV footage showing murdered Londonderry woman Jean Quigley just hours before her death.

It shows the mother-of-four buying a pizza on the Racecourse Road on Friday evening. Police believe the 30-year-old was probably killed that night.

Her body was found at her home in Cornshell Fields on Saturday night.

Detectives are also hoping to speak to a number of taxi drivers they "believe could move the investigation forward".

On Monday night, 100 people held a vigil outside her Londonderry home.

Detective Chief Inspector Frankie Taylor said the cause of death was still under investigation, but Ms Quigley had been beaten.

He also said that she had been two months pregnant when she died.

"Ms Quigley was a devoted mother-of-four children, three boys and a girl, aged between five and 12.

"We are not only investigating the brutal murder of a young mother, we are looking at the death of an unborn child as well," he said.

"She was the youngest of five, and her family and the wider community are devastated," he said.
