The Necrophiliac double killer pleads guilty again in the UK

A 60-year-old British man, who had already been sentenced to life imprisonment for two murders and dozens of post-mortem sexual assaults, pleaded guilty Thursday to more sexual assaults on women after their deaths, an unprecedented case in the United Kingdom.

68-year-old David Fuller pleaded guilty to 12 counts of sexual penetration of a corpse and four counts of possession of extreme pornography between 2007 and 2020. These facts correspond to a total of 23 victims, some of whom have not been identified.

The sentencing hearing will begin the week of December 5, most likely at the Old Bailey Court in London.

David Fuller is already serving a life sentence for the 1987 murders of two young women he strangled before sexually assaulting them in Tunbridge Wells (southwest of England).

He also admitted that he abused dozens of women and girls between 2008 and 2020. He filmed and photographed himself during these assaults, which were committed in two mortuaries of two hospitals in southern England where he worked as an electrician for a long time.

The total number of his victims is estimated at more than a hundred, including a nine-year-old girl and a hundred-year-old woman.

This is a case “unprecedented in the history of British justice”, and this was confirmed by the prosecution when the facts were revealed a year ago. The British Minister of Health at the time, Sajid Javid, had announced the opening of an independent investigation.
