Michaela, who was working as a prostitute when she was killed, was picked up by a man trawling the streets of Sheffield’s red light district.

He picked the 25-year-old up in a car from Bower Street, off Corporation Street, in the city centre and drove her to a secluded car park nearby – opposite a pub known then as The Manchester, but which is now The Harlequin.

An old-style blue Ford Sierra was seen driving away from where Michaela’s body was discovered by another sex worker, who raised the alarm.

PC Richard Twigg was the first police officer to arrive at the crime scene and Michaela managed to pass on some valuable information about her attacker, which the police officer jotted down on his hand as he tended to her before she was rushed to the Northern General Hospital, where she died three hours later.
