Big boobs 'suffocate mum'
A MUM allegedly murdered by her lover may have been suffocated by her own huge BOOBS, a jury heard yesterday.
The theory was put to a Home Office pathologist after 17st Yvette Dow, 24, was found face down on her floor — her head enveloped by “her very large breasts”.
Professor Guy Rutty admitted it was possible the mum of two may have collapsed from a fit — and smothered herself.
He told Nottingham Crown Court: “When a person is very large they can die because of their own sheer weight.”
Yvette lay dead for two days at her home in Beaumont Leys, Leicester, before worried relatives alerted cops. Her body had been desecrated with white paint.
One son had been staying with a relative but youngest Kai, aged 21 months, was found upstairs in his cot.
Warehouseman Simon Williamson, 26, of Mansfield, Notts, denies murdering Yvette when she ended their affair. The trial continues.
