Woman charged with murder after deaths of two children in MargateA woman has been charged with murder in connection with the deaths of two children in Margate. Less than an hour before the children were found at the house, the woman was involved in a car crash and was taken to hospital. It is believed the woman and children had not been living at the house very long, according to neighbours. “The South East Coast ambulance service also attended and two young children were taken to hospital, where they were later confirmed deceased. “Samantha Ford, aged 37 and of Castle Drive, Margate, was arrested and on 28 December, following authorisation from the Crown Prosecution Service, was charged with two counts of murder.”
