Maxine Carr is to be prosecuted for benefit fraud and lying in applications for jobs at a primary school in Soham, the British Crown Prosecution Service said today.

Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman were “loyal to each other”, very popular and good friends who would have felt secure in their home town, their murder trial heard today.

IAN HUNTLEY and Maxine Carr changed their names and invented new backgrounds before they arrived in Soham last September.
