A paedophile has been found guilty of the Babes in the Woods murders involving two young girls - 32 years after their deaths.

Russell Bishop was convicted of the killings of Nicola Fellows and Karen Hadaway, both aged nine, following a trial at the Old Bailey.

Bishop was just 20 when he sexually assaulted and strangled the youngsters in a woodland den in Brighton in 1986.

He was originally acquitted of their murders in 1987, almost 31 years ago.

But the 52-year-old was ordered to face a fresh trial under the double jeopardy law when new DNA evidence came to light, and he was convicted on Monday.
