Carr could face further charges

THE girlfriend of the man accused of the double murder of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman could face "further serious charges" in connection with their deaths, an inquest heard today.

Maxine Carr, 25, is charged with attempting to pervert the course of justice in connection with the killings but an inquest into the deaths was told further charges could not be ruled out.

It heard that the 10-year-olds' bodies were found in a "severely decomposed and skeletonised" state at the bottom of a ditch and that the youngsters almost certainly had not died at the remote spot near Lakenheath, Suffolk, where their remains were found.
