David Fuller: the ‘morgue monster’
David Fuller is a father-of-four who lived in a quiet cul-de-sac in Heathfield, East Sussex, working for most of his adult life as an electrician at hospitals serving the residents of Kent and Sussex.
Those close to him recoiled in horror when the true nature of his character was revealed - as Fuller was identified as a double murder who had spent years sexually abusing dead women and girls.
The family man, 67, with keen interests in birdwatching, cycling, and photography had been identfied as the prime suspect in the so-called “bedsit murders” when Wendy Knell, 25, and Caroline Pierce, 20, were both sexually assaulted and killed in separate attacks at their Tunbridge Wells homes in 1987.
Fresh analysis of DNA had picked out Fuller as the killer and a trawl of his home uncovered a terrifying collection of four million images on hard drives and floppy disks showing sexual offences.
Among the horrific catalogue of abuse was footage of Fuller himself interfering with bodies in the hospital morgue.
He has now admitted the double murder and the sexual abuse of dozens of victims, aged from just nine to 100-years-old, and he is almost certain to die behind bars.
There were possible signs of the horrors to come when Fuller was convicted in 1973 and 1977 for a series of ‘creeper’ home burglaries, involving break-ins through rear windows. He was spared a jail sentence at Portsmouth crown court.
Within the space of five months in 1987, he carried out the murders of Ms Knell and Ms Pierce in the streets of Tunbridge Wells that he knew well. Fuller had met Ms Knell at the SupaSnaps store in the town where she was the manager and he often took in his photographs to be developed.
Her body was discovered at her bedsit in Guildford Road on June 23, 1987, with tests revealing her naked body had been sexually assaulted after the attack and possibly once she was already dead.
On November 24, 1987, Ms Pierce was attacked by Fuller outside her bedsit in Grosvenor Park and the killer dumped her body around 40 miles away in a country lane ditch.
Fuller may have believed he got away with the murders as the years passed by but DNA evidence from the scene as well as a bloody fingerprint would eventually be his downfall, thanks to improving analysis technology and techniques.
SupaSnaps envelopes were found at his home, tying him to Ms Knell, and detectives found a diary entry showing he had visited the Buster Browns restaurant where Ms Pierce worked.
Fuller told a pack of lies to police but investigations revealed he had lived near to, or visited, the streets where both victims were killed. The discovery of the images and videos hidden at his home switched police attention to the now-closed Kent and Sussex Hospital where Fuller had worked from 1989 to 2010 and Tunbridge Wells Hospital where he was employed until his arrest.
Detectives discovered the killer had access to the morgues, using his swipe card to let himself in to abuse bodies after other staff members had left for the day.
He knew which parts of the morgue were covered by CCTV and carried out the abuse out of shot. But footage from his own collection, as well as detailed records of names and ages that he made, helped police to identify at least 80 people whose bodies have been interfered with.
Fuller eventually confessed to his sickening activities and admitted to police that he could not remember when it started or how many people he had abused. He insisted his motives were not sexual, but refused to discuss the abuse further.
A police hotline was set up to deal with hundreds of calls from the worried families of deceased people while the police investigation has widened once more to see if other historic violent and sexual crimes might be linked to Fuller.
He initially denied knowing either of the murdered women, then pushed the case to trial by claiming “diminished responsibility” for the killings. Ultimately, he pleaded guilty as the full details of his crimes were laid bare in court.
Police suspect Fuller may have abused hundreds of dead bodies during his life as a hospital electrician and maintenance worker.
