Man admits 2 murders and abusing over 100 bodies

A hospital worker has admitted murdering two women in 1987, and sexually abusing at least 100 female corpses, including children.

David Fuller, 67, of Heathfield, East Sussex, attacked Wendy Knell and Caroline Pierce in Tunbridge Wells.

On the fourth day of his murder trial at Maidstone Crown Court, Fuller changed his plea to guilty.

He previously admitted sexually abusing bodies in two Kent hospital morgues over 12 years.

Fuller had earlier admitted to killing the women subject to "diminished responsibility", but denied murder.

Mrs Justice Cheema-Grubb directed the jury to find him guilty on both counts of murder, after he was rearraigned.

Home Secretary Priti Patel said: "This is a shocking case, The sickening nature of the crimes committed will understandably cause public revulsion and concern.

"I would also like... to remember Wendy Knell and Caroline Pierce, two young women who had their lives brutally taken away from them over 30 years ago. I hope their families can find some solace in seeing justice finally done."

Fuller previously admitted sexually abusing bodies in two Kent hospital morgues over 12 years.

Ahead of the trial he had pleaded guilty to 51 offences, including 44 charges relating to 78 identified victims in the two mortuaries where he worked as an electrician.

Ms Knell's family said in a statement that "it's good knowing he will not be in a position to hurt or cause any more pain".

Investigators said the case came together following recent advances in DNA testing - and a huge police operation costing £2.5m - which linked Fuller to the double killings, dubbed "the Bedsit Murders".

His saliva and other DNA was found on Ms Knell's bedding, towel and intimate samples.

His semen was also found on Ms Pierce's tights, the only item of clothing she was wearing when her body was found in a water-filled dyke three weeks after her abduction.

Following his arrest for the murders, a search of Fuller's home revealed he had hoarded millions of indecent images and videos of children and extreme pornography on hard drives, floppy discs, DVDs and memory cards in his loft and spare room.

Two of the drives were hidden in a box, which was screwed to the back of a chest of drawers and placed inside a wardrobe. On these drives officers found footage Fuller had recorded of himself abusing corpses in the morgues.

Folders, some labelled with the names of the victims, contained images and videos of him molesting female bodies, including three children, between 2008 and November 2020.

Police have been unable to identify 20 of the victims.

Det Ch Supt Paul Fotheringham: "Sadly, it is likely to be the case that some of the victims will never be identified.

"In these cases there is such limited information available to help us with establishing their identities, and there are no lines of enquiry outside of the investigation that can assist us."

Fuller worked in electrical maintenance at hospitals since 1989 and was at the Kent and Sussex Hospital, until it closed in September 2011.

He was transferred to the Tunbridge Wells Hospital at Pembury, where the offences continued until his arrest.

Investigators said Fuller would work late shifts and go into the morgue when other staff had left, often "visiting the same bodies repeatedly".

Dirty old bastard, makes me feel sick,vile pervert.

What a disgusting sick man and over 12 yrs utterly vile.

Sickening.
Really obscene, what a truly vile creature he is.

He is clearly a sick bastard.

I hope that he rots in jail for life.

Dead right Mock.

I was listening to this on the news again and it's like a really sickening horror movie.
Absolutely sick and grotesque.

This is so disgusting and grim , wtf I feel sick .

There's some vile sickos out there .

Me too, I feel sick.

I was thinking what if this had happened to one of my family.
I felt the churned up feeling inside.
I can't imagine how the families of those he assaulted must feel.
Hard enough to lose loved ones but to learn about this gross assault on them too.

I mean the news stated one girl was 9 and the oldest person was 100.

This is really evil, no other word for it.

Yeah Abuse is horrible , but necrophilia is beyond that and I will never comprehend how effed up someone has to be in the head to do such a thing .

What's really alarming is when it's someone people would trust , even in death these people can't rest in peace . So many people aswell , utterly repulsive and evil .

there are some sick people about, but this guy seems to be on another level entirely. Lets not forget that he also murdered a couple of girls at a minimum

I am sure this happens quite a lot or did before the advent of cctv. If you are a necrophiliac then working at a mortuary is your go-to career choice id imagine?
