Twisted Necrophile David Fuller Admits to More Sickening Crimes
David Fuller, 68, has pleaded guilty to 12 counts of sexual intercourse with a corpse and four possession of extreme pornography charges. The grim admissions come at Croydon Crown Court after years of shocking revelations.
Already Behind Bars for Shocking Murders and Necrophilia
Fuller is no stranger to prison. He is serving life for the murders of two young women and sexually abusing over 100 female bodies. Working as an electrician at Tunbridge Wells Hospital, he capitalised on complete access to the mortuary to carry out his vile acts between 2007 and 2020.
His horrifying past dates back to 1987, when he strangled Wendy Knell, 25, and Caroline Pierce, 20, before sexually assaulting their corpses. Over 12 years, Fuller filmed himself abusing bodies ranging from a nine-year-old child to a 100-year-old woman.
New Charges Add to Twisted Legacy
Fuller first made headlines in December 2021, receiving two life sentences for sexually assaulting at least 102 deceased women. This latest guilty plea adds 16 fresh sex offences to his catalogue of depravity.
The cases came to light after police linked Fuller to Britain’s longest-unsolved double murder of over 30 years. His DNA connected him to cold cases and a horrifying cache of videos documenting his crimes.
One victim, Azra Kemal, just 24, was repeatedly violated after death when Fuller broke into the mortuary three times. The sick electrician’s acts sparked an inquiry launched in November last year, led by the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care.
Probe into How Such Atrocities Went Undetected
The investigation is working with families of the more than 100 victims. Its “phase 1” report was due out by the end of this year but has now been delayed until early next year.
A statement from the inquiry explained: “The volume of evidence and number of witnesses is much larger than expected. To fully analyse all the material, more time is needed.” Sir Jonathan Michael and his team promise to be thorough but swift.
Fuller will spend the rest of his life behind bars for one of the most sickening crime sprees in recent UK history.
