Man accused of murdering two women abused bodies in mortuaries, court told

David Fuller, 67, sexually abused dead women in hospitals where he worked, trial hears

A man who sexually assaulted two women after killing them performed similar sex acts on bodies at two hospital mortuaries, a court has heard.

David Fuller, 67, is on trial for the murder of Wendy Knell, 25, and Caroline Pierce, 20, in two separate attacks in Tunbridge Wells, Kent in 1987. He initially denied killing the women but changed his plea to manslaughter by reason of diminished responsibility after learning of DNA evidence, Maidstone crown court heard on Monday.
