The latest on the Shannon Matthews case direct from the BBC website!
The mother of Shannon Matthews will go on trial alongside Michael Donovan, who is charged with Shannon's kidnapping and false imprisonment.
Karen Matthews, 32, of Dewsbury, Yorks, appeared at Leeds Crown Court via video link to face charges of child neglect and perverting the course of justice.
The second charge states she "repeatedly concealed information" in relation to Shannon's whereabouts.
Ms Matthews was remanded back into custody to go on trial on 11 November.
A terrible, mother and parent just trying to con the world using her daughter as the inveigle (for a better), how did she think she would get away with it?
