Mysterious death: Carol Myers claimed she had been sexually abused by a Satanic cult

A nurse who claimed she has been sexually abused by a Satanic cult was found dead in mysterious circumstances, an inquest has heard.


Carol Myers said her family were Satanists who abused her and even claimed her mother murdered her sister then set fire to the house to hide the evidence.
A police probe found the disturbing allegations were unsubstantiated and the 41-year-old's family believe they were false memories dreamt up during controversial recovered memory therapy sessions.

The brother of Carol Myers, who was born Carol Felstead but changed her name, said the claims were a "myth" and said the family "fiercely" contest the allegations
Kevin Felstead told Westminster Coroner's Court: "I just want to ask that the court acknowledges that Carol developed false memories.


Just weeks before her death, she contacted her brother Richard out of the blue and said she was lonely and talked of moving back to Stockport to be near her family, who she promised to visit the following week.
But she never did. Richard wrote his sister a letter on June 29, the same day she was found dead.
