Methamphetamine User:

Steve Williams the step dad of Coral Borrows(6) and her brother Storm Borrows(8)
took a drug called P which caused really bad behaviour and violence. Steve Williams one day driving to school killed his daughter Coral and broke her jaw in 2 different places with blood all over the place, in the car one the ground, all over her face, all over his fist and all over her clothes. He then took her somewhere to hide her and then hid all of the other evidence like her clothes and her school bag. Steve Williams then went home and then the wife told him the bad news and then they got the police to search for her and found her in the river.
