‘I’m responsible for the deaths of Holly and Jessica’

IAN HUNTLEY choked back tears yesterday as he told how he promised his parents that he would tell the families of Holly Wells and Jessica Chapman exactly how they died.

Huntley told his Old Bailey murder trial that he accepted he was responsible for the deaths of the 10-year-olds and was ashamed by what he had done.

He denied murdering the schoolgirls, but admitted deliberately trying to cover his tracks by destroying forensic evidence linking him to the deaths and lying to police.
