A FORMER pub landlady who died at a railway station took her own life 'in the context of coercive and controlling behaviour, a coroner said.
Jill Parton suffered fatal injuries when she was hit by a freight train in Heaton Chapel, Stockport, in the early hours of June 3 this year.
An inquest heard the 46-year-old had been in a relationship in which she was subject to 'controlling and coercive behaviour.
Shortly before her death that relationship had broken down and Ms Parton was said to have been 'scared to leave the house, a coroner said.
The inquest at Stockport Coroners Court heard Ms Parton had been in a number of 'difficult relationships' during her life. Her daughter Amber Parton told the inquest her mum 'fell for the wrong people all the time!
She added: "She was beautiful. All she wanted was to be loved. She would do anything for anyone. She was just a good person."
Amber said in the weeks before her death her mum was having panic attacks because of threats made against the both of them.
