Police have released CCTV footage showing the final hours of Rose Johnston, a 68-year-old grandmother, before she was found dead from a fatal head injury at her home in Dovecot, Liverpool.

The footage shows Ms. Johnston socialising with friends at The Watch Maker pub in Prescot on October 2. In the video, she is seen helping herself to a coffee before leaving the establishment at approximately 12:40 am on October 3. She reportedly took a taxi home, where she was discovered deceased the following day, October 4.

Two men have been arrested in connection with the murder and are currently on conditional police bail. Ms. Johnston’s family described her as a ‘kind, caring and compassionate’ woman and expressed their ongoing distress as the first anniversary of her death approaches.
