A mother-of-four who disappeared without a trace more than a decade ago feared her then-boyfriend might try and kill her, a court has heard.
Claire Holland, 32, has not been seen alive since leaving a pub in Bristol in June 2012 and her ex-partner Darren Osment, 41, is now on trial accused of her murder.
Prosecutors allege Osment, a pub chef, killed Ms Holland on the night of 6 June and disposed of her body after blaming her for their child being taken into care in 2010.
