"Nobody had cleaned the scene. It was the most barbaric thing I've ever seen," said his niece Angela Hector. "There was blood everywhere. You could see the dog paw prints, the outline of his body. It was horrific. A dog walker stopped to talk to me, and his dog was licking Roger's blood."
Leadbeater's family covered the blood with a large tarpaulin sheet, and sat there for more than five hours until South Yorkshire police arranged for it to be cleaned up. The force has since apologised to the family. Hector, 55, and her family soon learned this was just one of a series of mistakes and miscommunications surrounding Leadbeater's death on 9 August last year, and, with an inquest due to start today, say they want to know why things went so wrong.
